On June 11, 1963, a Vietnamese Buddhist monk named Thich Quang Duc set himself on fire in an act of self immolation to protest the oppression of Buddhists by the South Vietnamese's Roman Catholic government. I have never been one of much faith, but this act of peaceful protest to me is what Christ on the Cross is to Christians.

Inspiration coming from Gajin Fujita
An incredibly talented artist came and spoke at the University of Utah today. A quiet and humble Gajin Fujita has combined the traditional art styles from Ukiyo-e and modern graffiti in amazing fashion. With art in galleries across the globe, Gajin's work is certainly something everyone should check out.
