I am a Japanese ceramic artist.

In the information society, I am sometimes set a back by two contradicting feelings:
I recognise the scale of the world in the borderless age, while at the same time I feel embarrassed because the world has become so small. This makes me try hard to identify myself. Should I become a SAMURAI with armor called tradition?
Many people, who saliently take view of " orientalism", would enjoy it, although it is ridiculous.
My answer is NO. The tradition is the base on which we make the future, and I would like to weave the future with the flexible materials called tradition.

    Hello. :)

My name is Omana and I'm student in the National School for Fine Arts in Bulgaria.  I joined this page, because I'm very interested in japanese culture, printmaking, posters and design. It's amazing to be part of Artreview! I hope to find friends here.

Lo Cotidiano I started this work in progress in Mexico, and focused on my perception of my ever changing surroundings transforming their initial strangeness into everyday life «lo cotidiano». Nothing that would favor exotics, that very first and short look into a fascinating world, filled with fear and promising thrills no. Its intention is rather an invitation to an aesthetic journey, compiled from bits and pieces of my daily routine, each so negligible by itself, in such a way that the pieces themselves will not distract the viewer from my main intention. Every-day life leaves footprints behind. I was once told, that Indians were able to «read» footprints; now I am inviting the visitor of my installation to follow my essay on changes of perception from the alien to the absorbed environment, from strange and unrelated bits and pieces to an combination of inherent interdependencies, with a new meaning. The project is meant to grow by chapters. The first chapter was made out of every-day material during my stay in Mexico. and was shown for the first time in the gallery «Haus der Kunst» in Guadalajara, Jalisco, in October 2004, as my farewell exhibition in Mexico. For the second time it was shown in the" Barefoot Gallery" ,Colombo , Sri Lanka in 2006 - It is composed of 33 white «personalized footprints», floating in mid-air in a black cubicle and with fluorescent light, allowing the viewer silent, differentiated, subjective perceptions.
