Aya Kondo : Rock 'n' roll with manners
By MANAMI OKAZAKI
Special to The Japan Times

"What can you say about Aya Kondo, a woodblock-print artist who has
taken staid wafu -- traditional Japanese style -- and turned it into
girly sass? In doing so, Kondo encapsulates everything we love about
Japanese youth culture at its best: well-mannered rock 'n' roll,
cultural self-consciousness, the go-getter ganbare spirit and a
willingness to steal shamelessly from abroad..."
