From the website <http://www.csuohio.edu/art_photos/> of Professor Masumi Hayashi at Cleveland State University in Cleveland, Ohio....:

***** Professor Hayashi teaches photography at Cleveland State in the Art Department, and this web site serves as an on-line gallery to show her creative research in photography. This site will ultimately display Hayashi's photography from different projects over the last 12 years, including her Prison series, E.P.A. Superfund Sites series, Post-Industrial Landscapes series, as well as other on-going projects. Read the Artist Biography <http://www.csuohio.edu/art_photos/docs/bio.html> for more information about Professor Hayashi.

Presently, this site focuses on a body of work that deals with the internment of Americans of Japanese ancestry during World War II. Hayashi's panoramic photo collages show the remnants of sites of Japanese American Internment camps during World War II, an archeological memory. Hayashi also interviewed camp survivors in different areas of the United States and Canada. She collected personal photographs taken by these camp survivors during their time at the internment camps. Together these photographs create a link between past and present. For more in depth commentary on the installation, see the gallery and museum installation Artist Statement <http://www.csuohio.edu/art_photos/docs/statement.html>. *****
