Minoru Shirasawa’s Art Gallery
“twelve words left by Minoru Shirasawa”
He was a painter and an obstetrician.
A message from artist Minoru Shirasawa, who has watched the birth of life up close.

“The light of love heals
the wounds of the heart”
Respecting the preciousness of life on a white canvas...

“After the cold winter,
the joy of spring awaits”
Intertwining thoughts with the beautiful seasons of Gunma...

“Foreign winds bring
love and healing”
Journeying through foreign lands, seeking love...

“Each time I think of my childhood home,
my heart fills with love”
The landscape of love woven by memories...

“Femininity is a quiet glow
of love and healing.”
Depicting the kindness that dwells in everyday moments...

“You are here because
of the power of love”
The miraculous birth woven by love...
