Quotidian is an oxymoron:)

quotidian \kwoh-TID-ee-uhn\, adjective:
1. Occurring or returning daily; as, a quotidian fever.
2. Of an everyday character; ordinary, commonplace, trivial.

“Thus, art for Amulya Chandra Pal is inextricably bound up with ordinary life. ‘The process of skilled creation is not divided from the quotidian flow…. It belongs to the daily round of work, and even its most glorious products are meshed in commerce and destined for participatory roles in human affairs’.”
–”Quotidian Treasures: A folklorist explores the visual traditions of Bangladesh,” New York Times, March 8, 1998
