We are pleased to announce the 7th Oyako Photo Festival — As Many Stories as There Are Families, once again to be held at the Foreign Correspondents’ Club of Japan (FCCJ).
The exhibition will run from May 30 (Saturday) through June 26 (Friday), 2026.
This year, photographers from Japan and around the world have once again contributed works exploring the theme of Oyako—the bond between parent and child.
Afghanistan, Cambodia, Canada, the Czech Republic, Gaza, Iran, Japan, Poland, Syria, Ukraine, the United States, and Vietnam.
Though cultures, religions, environments, and ways of life may differ, each photograph reveals something universal: the time shared between parent and child, and the continuity of life itself.
“Oyako transcends borders, cultures, and religions—it is a universal language.”
At a time when conflict and division continue in many parts of the world, we hope this exhibition will encourage visitors to reflect on the everyday lives of families and the enduring connections that sustain us.
As many families, as many stories.
We hope that the parent-child relationships captured in these photographs will resonate with you in a meaningful way.
