Description: 'Haiku Prelude - Haiku Kami' series features twenty-seven paintings, inspired by traditional and contemporary Japanese and western haiku. The project aims to portray each haiku poem and embody its visual energy through the abstract painting. The project was conceived around the time of the natural and nuclear disasters in Japan in March 2011. In the light of these events Carolina Khouri dedicated the series to all victims there. During the 'Haiku Prelude - Haiku Kami' project's exhibition, on the day of the first anniversary of The Great East Tohoku Earthquake, a book will be launched. All proceeds from the book will be donated to Momo - Kaki Orphans Fund, which provides aid and encouragement for the children orphaned on this tragic day. The publication will also serve as an evolving memorial to those that suffered as a result of last March's tragedies in Japan.
