This artist’s book by Otani Workshop traces an intimate, autobiographical journey through fantastical childhood memories. Structured like a children’s book, it explores Otani’s path as an artist, where playful and uncanny monsters reflect early fears, curiosities, and creative impulses. Featuring eleven original paintings and a handwritten text, the book is a tactile object that invites introspection. Created in conjunction with his first solo exhibition in North America, the book echoes the show’s emotional and material textures, including hand-built ceramics and new paintings. Together, they map a space where memory shifts and making becomes a way of understanding the self.
