The initiative, started in 2022 at the request of a local survivors&#8217; group, aims to visually express the horrors of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. Five students are currently working on four pieces depicting scenes of destruction and trauma. The artworks will be exhibited from August 7 to 11 at Fukuoka City\u2019s Citizen Welfare Plaza. <\/span><b>Source: <\/b><a href=\"https:\/\/www3.nhk.or.jp\/fukuoka-news\/20250702\/5010028787.html\" rel=\"noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">NHK<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<p><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/fnn_ksu-art_2025_cl.jpg?resize=1400%2C805&#038;ssl=1\" alt=\"Students Paint Atomic Bomb Testimonies To Preserve Survivors\u2019 Stories\" width=\"1400\" height=\"805\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-171991\" srcset=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/fnn_ksu-art_2025_cl.jpg?w=1400&amp;ssl=1 1400w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/fnn_ksu-art_2025_cl.jpg?resize=300%2C173&amp;ssl=1 300w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/fnn_ksu-art_2025_cl.jpg?resize=1024%2C589&amp;ssl=1 1024w, https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/www.fukuoka-now.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/fnn_ksu-art_2025_cl.jpg?resize=768%2C442&amp;ssl=1 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Stay informed with the latest Fukuoka &amp; Kyushu news and events in English.
