Japanese woman creates paper sculptures that cannot be distinguished from real objects
A resident of Japan, Makiko Azakami, creates incredibly realistic paper sculptures. They are very difficult to distinguish from real household items.
The creation of paper sculptures at Makiko began as a hobby and gradually turned into a life-long affair, Zagge reports.
A woman approaches her occupation with humor. She looks at household items and creates paper copies. Sometimes her friends and relatives take paper creations for real household appliances or devices.
Makiko uses scissors, tweezers, scalpels, paper and glue to work. It seems to her that these tools and materials help realize creative imagination no matter what is better.
The sculptor claims that people often do not pay attention to surrounding objects. And for her it is they who become the ideological inspirers.
Makiko's work is involved in many advertising campaigns in Japan and beyond. They even appear on the covers of glossy fashion magazines.
