Kirigami


Another little treat from the Kinokuniya bookshop - an inspiring visual diary by Japanese paper artist and Kirigami specialist Kanako Yaguchi. On her website Kanako explains that this is a journal combining photographic images of growing up in Japan, an insight into her daily life, and her artistic work in the medium of paper-cutting.




So beautiful - I wish I had the patience for this intricate work!
Take a look at Kanako's website for more images of her paper-cut designs on a range of other homeware and clothing products.
