Sharks were swimming in our seas more than 430 million years before the first humans appeared. It’s fair to say that as a species we pretty quickly developed a wary attitude towards them. The fact is though that we’re a far bigger threat to them than they are to us. And that’s the subject of a recently premiered local musical production “Shark Symphony”. We’ll be talking to two of its creators in part two. Japanese artist Izumi Kato, who grew up in the coastal area of the Shimane prefecture in Western Japan. It’s the myths and folklore of that area that provide the inspiration for the humanoid figures in his work.

Japanese artist Wataru Yamakami says that ever since he was a child, he’s had doubts about reality, as well as fears that everything that happens in this world may be a trick or a fiction. Here at the wamono art gallery we’re currently getting the opportunity to step into Yamakami’s “World Of The World”.
