Chiura Obata was one of more than 100,000 Japanese Americans forcefully relocated to the stark barracks of desert internment camps during World War II. Obata s work from this period gives us a view into the camps that is at once honest in the details of austerity and hardship and strikingly lyrical in its portrayal of hope and beauty even in incarceration.
