The Heart of Art at Pasona

Founded in 1992, Pasona Group, under the motto "Talent Has No Disabilities," established the ‘Art Village’ initiative to provide employment opportunities for individuals with disabilities in artistic activities. In 2004, Pasona Heartful began hiring 'artist employees,' and about 23 artists now create unique artwork that showcases their individual talents and sensibilities.

This ongoing commitment has allowed Pasona Heartful to bring forth various exhibitions, enhancing the visibility of these talented artists. This exhibition is a special focus on Morita's artistic world, showcasing his works that stand out due to their striking colors and beautifully detailed line art.
