This month we feature a collaboration between <strong>Christina Chin<\/strong> and <strong>Takatoshi Goto<\/strong>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Christina<\/strong> is a painter and a haiku poet, a three-time Pushcart Prize 2025 Nominee, and a four-time recipient of top 100 in the mDAC Summit Contests. Her work has been exhibited at the Palo Alto Art Center, California. She is provided the haiku for the MusArt book of Randall Vemer\u2019s paintings published by ArtReach Publication, Portland, Oregon. Among her awards are 1st prize in the 34th Annual Cherry Blossom Sakura Festival 2020 Haiku Contest; 1st prize in the 8th Setouchi Matsuyama 2019 Photohaiku Contest; and two City Soka Saitama\u2019s 2020 haiku prizes. She is published in numerous journals, multilingual journals and anthologies including Japan\u2019s prestigious monthly <em>Haikukai Magazine<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Takatoshi<\/strong> was born in Nagasaki-city, Japan, and received a Doctorate of Medicine from Jichi Medical University. He has published several books of haiku and criticism. He won the prestigious Modern Haiku Debut Prize in 1995, and since then has received numerous other awards, including the 1997 Sweden Haiku Prize, and the 1997 Modern Haiku Critic Prize. In 2018 he became the chief director of the Japan Haiku Association, and in 2024 served as director of the Bungaku no Mori Foundation.[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][vc_column width=&#8221;1\/4&#8243;][vc_single_image image=&#8221;67113&#8243; css=&#8221;&#8221;][vc_column_text css=&#8221;&#8221;]\n<h3 style=\"text-align: center;\">Takatoshi Goto<\/h3>\n[\/vc_column_text][\/vc_column][\/vc_row][vc_row][vc_column][vc_media_grid css=&#8221;&#8221; grid_id=&#8221;vc_gid:1735399122163-f4af8469-cbff-8&#8243; include=&#8221;67114,67115,67116,67117,67118,67119,67120,67121,67122,67123,67124,67125,67126,67127,67128,67129,67130,67131,67132,67133,67134,67135,67136,67137,67138,67139,67140,67141,67142,67143&#8243;][\/vc_column][\/vc_row]\n<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Christina Chin places the haiku of Takatoshi Goto into her stylized haiga settings in a unique collaboration . . .<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":67126,"comment_status":"closed","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1748],"tags":[3227,1834,3483,96],"post_series":[],"class_list":["post-67112","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-haiga-galleries","tag-christina-chin","tag-haiga-galleries","tag-takatoshi-goto","tag-the-haiku-foundation","entry","has-media"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.1.1 -
