MADE FOR JAPAN is a project by Citypulse, conducted by Toshihiro Oshima and aimed to help the Japanese people to heal their wounds.

It is composed by 12 Volumes created by 11 artists, 9 of them Japanese and 2 Spanish photographers specially invited to the project.

Starting August 11th, exactly 5 months after the earthquake, we will launch a new Volume in regular pace.

All the profits will go to the Japanese Red Cross to be applied in the reconstruction labors.
