SUMMARY:Panel Discussion: Reconciliation and Integration Through Art Kintsugi and Heart Maps
DESCRIPTION:\nPhoto courtesy of Prolongar Foundation\, Colombia\n\n\n\nExplore how art fosters reconciliation and social integration\, through a panel discussion featuring insights from three global visionary leaders—Maria Elisa Pinto-Garcia (Colombia)\, Lungi Morrison (South Africa)\, and Toc Soneoulay-Gillespie (Laos and Oregon). Through a close look at practical applications of the Japanese craft of repairing ceramics with gold\, kintsugi (金継ぎ)\, and the Heart Maps methodology of using dialogue and drawings to positively shift perspectives and stereotypes\, the conversation will highlight the transformative power of art and creativity to heal\, repair and reimagine aspects of our humanity that may otherwise be labeled as “broken”.\n\n\n\nAbout the Panelists:\n\n\n\n\n\nAbout the Moderator:\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nJapan Institute is the global cultural initiative of Portland Japanese Garden\, created to facilitate and inspire conversations about peace\, art\, and the human relationship with the natural world. Japan Institute’s programs convene thought leaders from numerous cultural\, intellectual\, and diplomatic fields to explore the evolving role of art\, cultural institutions\, and public spaces as platforms for peacebuilding and community engagement.\n\n\n\nThis event is made possible through a grant from the Japan World Exposition 1970 Commemorative Fund. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n// Get the modal elements\nvar mainModal = document.getElementById("newsModal")\;\nvar separateModal = document.getElementById("separateModal")\;\n\n// Get the button elements\nvar mainBtns = document.getElementsByClassName("modal-btn")\;\nvar separateBtn = document.getElementById("separateModalBtn")\;\n\n// Get the close button elements\nvar mainSpan = mainModal.getElementsByClassName("close")[0]\;\nvar separateSpan = separateModal.getElementsByClassName("close")[0]\;\n\n// Function to toggle the display of a modal\nfunction toggleModal(modal) {\n  modal.style.display = (modal.style.display === "block") ?
