I've always delighted in the stories and essays of David Sedaris, but if I'd never read Dress Your Family in Corduroy and Denim or When You Are Engulfed in Flames, I would pick up Let's Explore Diabetes With Owls on the basis of its title. This has been my best reading year so far. I've already read five books; two by Sedaris. During these times, who doesn't need a bit of his humor to brighten your day?
Finding moments of genuine peace can feel like a rare treasure these days. But what if I told you that a dose of serenity could be as simple as gazing upon a canvas? Hiroya Kurata 's work makes you want to slow down and find tranquility in daily life. His oil paintings look like delightful children's books or manga that whisper calmness through their composition, their palette, and the very essence of what they depict. Hiroya's canvases are basically a visual diary, capturing little snippets of moments he spends with his family in ordinary places. And, in a way, his art provides a pause button, a moment to simply be in the presence of something beautiful and serene. His work has been exhibited extensively in solo and group exhibitions across the globe, from New York to Hong Kong, Tokyo, and London. Waiting , his debut solo show at Carl Kostyál , is on view until August 2, 2025.
