Seriously Kawaii is a piece that deals with the ideals that men place upon women in Asian cultures and the obsession with these women in the American media. It deals with the sexuality of these women grouped into three major stereotypes, the seductive, the passive and the cute. These three areas seem to be taboo for a large portion of people in today's world. Whether right or wrong is not the question here, its merely a look into the complexities of it and the way that it is shown in print media. The Japanese in the corner is reminiscent of America's supposed understanding of the Japanese culture saying "Kawaii" in very broken Japanese. This is a mixed media piece consisting of print media, leather scraps, acrylic, and a bit of some dried foilage mixed in there. I hope you enjoy.
Ooo, I love the message behind the picture. I think it was a great idea, and I know you aren't saying it's right or wrong, or anything, I'm just saying, I think it's one of those things that needs to be pointed out... You know... that we often rely too much on stereotypes... o.o;; Also... I love the picture, 'tis quite lovely.

Daily Literature Deviations is a group that is dedicated to bringing literature to the forefront of the deviantArt community. We attempt to accomplish this by daily featuring Literature artists from around the community that deserve the recognition, but are not getting it.
Each day we will feature 10 deviations from the Literature categories in a News Article. In order to support the artists that we feature, we ask that you the news article as well as check out the individual pieces. We understand that each day you may not be able to check out each and every one of the pieces, everyone has their own things going on.
