Japanese artist Masayo Fukuda is a master paper cutting artist.
Mastering the craft known as Kirie, the traditional art form involves cutting intricate forms from a single sheet of white paper and then contrasting it against a black background to reveal the design.
This amazing form of art requires tremendous patience and a steady hand.
At first glance, the beautiful artwork looks as though it was rendered using fine-tipped pens, but Fukuda carefully cut every detail from one sheet of paper.
Fukuda create mind-boggling detailed designs using simple tools: a cutting mat, blade, and paper.
The finished products are more than amazing.
