Hilde Domin flower to Japan

I'm Svenja,

The Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald fans, friends and people from Japan are always in our hearts.
Remain strong, please. We know you are!

Thank you so much, dear Wolfgang Hampel for suggesting Letizia Mancino as a Betty MacDonald Fan Club Honor member.
Wolfgang Hampel, Betty MacDonald Memorial Award winner and author of Betty MacDonald biography, admires Letizia Mancino's artwork and books.
Letizia Mancino was a very good friend of Hilde Domin.

Letizia Mancino, President of Goethe Society, created a Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Gallery with her magical artwork.

Letizia Mancino's artwork is beloved around the world, but especially in Japan and other countries in Asia.

We got many mails from our friends who told us that Letizia Mancino's artwork is like a candle in the dark and sunshine in the hearts. It's so very important, especially in these days.

Thank you so much, dear Letizia Mancino in the name of so many Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fan Club Fans.

Letizia Mancino is sending a great message to our Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald Fan Club fans in Japan. You can read Letizia's text in german, english and italian language.

Love,

Svenja


Liebe Hilde Domin und Betty MacDonald Freunde in Japan,

in diesen Stunden richtet sich meine Sorge auf das schwere Schicksal, dass Ihr alle und Eure Familien und Freunde im Land durchmachen müssen.

Mit Staunen bewundere ich Eure Geduld und Würde in dieser unermesslich schwierigen Situation. Das Licht wird die Finsternis vertreiben und das Leid wird sich in Liebe verwandeln. Ich glaube, dass Eure Opfer der ganzen Welt helfen wird: Aus dem Boden der Schmerzen wird eine leuchtende Lotos-Blume der Versöhnung für Menschen und Natur entstehen.

Auch meine Gemälde, die in so leuchtenden Farben erscheinen, sind aus der Überwindung dunkler Erfahrungen entstanden: Mögen sie mit ihrer Harmonie den Augen, die so viel Verwüstungen sehen müssen, Trost und Hoffnung schenken.

Dear Friends of Hilde Domin and Betty MacDonald in Japan,

In these hours my concern is the heavy fate which you, your families and friends are suffering.

I greatly admire your patience and dignity in this situation of utmost difficulty. I am sure: The light will drive back the darkness, and suffering will be converted to love. I believe that your sacrifice will help the whole world. The soil of suffering will generate a lotus-flower of reconciliation for Man and Nature.

Also my paintigs which appear in such splendid colors, have their origin in the overcoming of dark experiences. I wish that these images with their harmony will give you consolation and hope.

Cari amici di Hilde Domin e Betty MacDonald in Giappone,

In queste ore le mie preoccupazioni e timori sono diretti al grave destino, che voi tutti dovete sopportare nella vostra terra insieme a parenti e amici.

Con meraviglia osservo la pazienza e dignità che voi mostrate in questa difficilissima situazione. Io credo, che il vostro sacrificio sarà di aiuto all`intera umanità.Dal terreno del dolore crescerà un fiore di loto della comprensione tra uomini e natura. Anche i miei quadri, così brillanti nei colori, sono nati dal superamento di oscure esperienze.

Spero che essi possano ,con la loro armonia, dare speranza e consolazione, ai vostri occhi, che ora vedono tanta distruzione.

Letizia
