I wanted to do a series of owls and owl spirits.The theme took off in my imagination and I started seeing owls in my dreams. I am particularly fascinated by the planes on the face of the Barn Owl. I wanted to depict the owl with his wings spread out as though about to fly. This relates to the feeling which can occur, when a person's soul quite simply is tired of the 3 dimensions and yearns for release. This listing is for one Raku Ceramic Sculpture of a Barn Owl. His face is stylised and wide, his wings curved and spread in a gesture of flight. The eyes are hollow and haunting in a way. His white-crackle body is delicate and perfect. His face is coloured with a wonderful manganese crackle. A very unique and gorgeous piece. Raku, as well, connects me, with my Japanese ancestry. A Heritage lost, basically, by Immigration. It is not the first generation or the Second, that will register this as a loss, as they are still living the heyday of a false integration, but the third and fourth generation, may feel that slight twinge of Nostalgia for Belonging to a culture to which they will never be able to return to.

I am a multi-disciplinary artist based in Sitges, Spain, near to Barcelona. I create paintings, ceramic sculptures and fiber art. I started my art career as a street artist as a teenager. I loved the dynamism of graffiti, the rebellion and expression. I filled my portfolio with pictures of my murals, and got myself into Art School, Emily Carr College of Art and Design in Vancouver. Art school introduced me to many new ideas. Although I majored in Sculpure, I found myself leaning towards Paintings, and finally I started experimenting with Installation and Public Intervention. I travelled to India and Thailand. This changed things. I wanted to make political art, or do projects which helped people. Later I moved to the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design where I was introduced to Conceptual Art. I have exhibited in Tokyo, Japan, Toronto and Barcelona. The last few years I have focused on Fiber- Art installations and Raku Ceramic Sculpture. Now after several years hiatus, I am back to making Paintings. I found making abstract paintings very liberating. I love it!
