Photo documentary on the status of women in Japan

<p>After a 3 months photo report in Japan, I&#39;m back in France to exhibit my&nbsp;report &quot;Subaltern&quot;. It highlights <strong>the female condition on the archipelago</strong> through 3 themes: the conflict of generations, the respect of elders and society stronger than the individual.&nbsp;</p> <p>I am a Master 2 student at KEDGE Bordeaux, the exhibition is part of a program of the institution dedicated <strong>to the promotion of student initiatives towards associations</strong>. The objective of this program is to promote associative projects with a real social impact.</p> <p>Despite some reforms and efforts,<strong> the status of Japanese women has not changed much</strong>, both at work and at home. This set of photographs is not an &quot;I accuse&quot; of any country or civilization, it is not a question of pointing the finger at culture, <strong>but rather of reflecting on a problem that exists in many societies around the world</strong>. This report, which deals with a sensitive subject, is not a reflection of Japanese society with its pop-culture, its gastronomy, its history and so many others that have nourished the fantasies of many French people for decades.</p> <p>However, <strong>I focused on a specific subject and tried to paint the situation of women in Japanese society through my foreign eye</strong> and through the point of view of many women telling their stories.</p> <p>In this report, we find Japanese women torn between the two poles of a <strong>post-modern society</strong>, anonymous women, <strong>absorbed by a society stronger than the individual</strong>. Through an interview, we also find the point of view of a western woman who moved to Japan 8 years ago to open her own business and many others. In order to improve the status of women in Japan or in the rest of the world,<strong> the aggregation of an infinity of small initiatives is necessary so that mentalities are in rupture with those of the old generations.</strong></p> <p><strong>I am convinced that this exhibition combined with a fund-raising event will be one of those initiatives which, when added together, will make a difference in the long term.</strong></p>
