Tatsuo Miyajima, one of Japan’s most influential artists over the past two decades, debuted his work “HOTO” (2008) in the United States for the first time this week for an indefinite engagement at The Shops at Crystals in Las Vegas. The piece previously has been on display only in Japan and China.
Inspired by Buddhist scripture, HOTO – meaning “treasure pagoda” – refers to a story about a monumental bejeweled tower that emerges from the ground, floats midair and covers half the world, symbolizing the importance of every human life. According to Buddhist teachings, life cannot be described without such an impossible story because life is nothing but a miracle.
It was this scripture and the devastating events of September 11, 2001 that inspired Miyajima to create HOTO, which represents his belief that every life is important as well as his hope for inter-connectedness across the globe creating peace and community.

Let’s face it, drivers looking for car lease deals on superminis aren’t
exactly faced with a lack of choice. It pays to consider all your
options, and the Kia Rio certainly deserves to be up there on your list
along with the likes of the Ford Fiesta. It’s rather stylish,
deceptively spacious and continues to impress as one of the greenest
and most economical to run cars in its class..See More
