Expats x Migrants Project + Street Exhibition
This year marks the 30th aniversary of the Maastricht Treaty. In this context, Studio Europa is organising a citizenās panels, called the Conference on the Future of Europe.

Expats x Migrants: Call for Participants
'Expats x Migrants' invites people to question the distinction made between migrants and expats. While the term āexpatā is entangled with assumptions of privilege and class, the label āmigrantā somehow connotes something lesser, even though both groups consist of people who moved away from their country of origin.

HÄfu2HÄfu photo book is out!
After completing the crowdfunding campaign in March 2018, and a wonderful year full of exhibitions, workshops and meeting many more hÄfu people to photograph and interview, I am extremely happy to say the HÄfu2HÄfu photo book out and shipping worldwide. HÄfu2HÄfu is an ongoing worldwide photography project exploring what it means to be hÄfu ā a person with one Japanese parent. Japanese-Belgian photographer Tetsuro Miyazaki has interviewed and portrayed fellow Japanese hÄfu, with a parent from nearly 100 different countries. The 120 people in this book do not answer questions but ask them: each hÄfu poses a question to you, the viewer. With these questions, HÄfu2HÄfu is creating dialogue and stimulates self-reflection about identity, so that we can find answers of our own. The regular photo book, signed copies and the Limited Edition (60 pcs) photo books are available through the Hafu2Hafu Webshop.
New York Times:Ā If you gaze at the many portraits (ā¦) photographed by Mr. Miyazaki, you can see the searching in their faces, the puzzling out (ā¦). But you can also gain the sense that there are deep currents, forces old and powerful, in opposition to wall-building and racial hunkering.[gallery size="large" link="file" ids="2448,2447,2449,2450,2451,2452"]
