Statement
I am 'Here'.
I live and work in this town. All of us here in this town make it what it is, we that are here. We are proud of this.
Anyone, regardless of region, country or nationality, must be able to declare their existence. Our right to be here, to exist, is something that cannot be lost. With this thought, we raise a voice.
‘WE ARE HERE’
Overview
‘WE ARE HERE’, originating in Koganecho, Yokohama, is a project to make its residents more visible. Anyone interested in joining us can declare, “We are here,” by displaying our project’s symbol for others to see. This can be in any location, for any period of time. Our voices individually and collectively declaring ‘We are here’ will be a catalyst for the re-discovery of those who might otherwise go unnoticed. Let's raise our voices together: ‘WE ARE HERE’!
