I am drawn to textures, it is part of what gives me pleasure in painting and sculpture as well, there are evolutionary explanations for our attraction to patterns and textures. It is survival, we are constantly looking for changes in the environment that will indicate danger or hunting. For me it is simply an aesthetic or sensual need, my fingers seek contact with materials. As a student, I spent six months in Japan as part of a student exchange. It was a mixed experience. On the one hand, the Japanese aesthetic is amazing, almost perfect, but gives just the right amount of room for imperfection, chaos, and disorder. Attention to detail is everywhere. The way in which a simple restaurant shapes your plate, the way gifts are wrapped, the design of the shop windows. On the other hand, I felt trapped within the Japanese concept of art, and in the rigid social order, everything is measured, everything is under control.

We see creativity - in its broadest and deepest sense - as the center of our ability to cope with internal and external reality. "To be authentic" - writes Simone de Beauvoir - "means becoming creative and claiming ownership of who we are, of our self, shaped by our choices."

    Hey there, Pandas! My name is Diana (though some prefer to refer to me as Diane, Deanna, and even Liana sometimes), and I am a Community Post Moderator Lead for Bored Panda. As my position title states, I am one of the people (employed Pandas for bamboo) over here who work with the community side of things on this website to ensure all is well, and while at that, I also help various creators and artists get recognition for the incredible work they do by connecting them to a large worldwide audience. Other than that, outside of work, you can find me brewing a nice cup of coffee, making a pizza from scratch, or baking brownies. I also love traveling, concerts, and cats (heavy on that, because I am a cat mom).
