Thanks to Spotify I have discovered a lot of talented musicians who have fallen into undeserved near-obscurity. I'd never heard of MAVICA, Olivia Dean, or Small Million until their names and songs appeared on Discover Weekly. Let's start the playlist with Apollo (New Love). Some Googling revealed that Tommy Ashby is a Scottish singer-songwriter that has a PhD in psychoacoustics, whatever that means. Enjoy!
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.
