Japanese artist makes larger-than-life but delicate floor-to-ceiling tapestries out of paper

Tomoko Shioyasu, 36, is a Japanese artist that has amazing talent in creating floor-to-ceiling paper tapestries. She was born in Osaka and majored in sculpture at the Kyoto City University of Arts. This artist creates large-scale, delicate art from paper that is inspired by forms and patterns from the natural world such as blossoms, trees, and other complex, swirling organic forms like cellular formations and flowing water. Shioyasu mainly uses utility knives to cut meticulous designs into sheets of paper. She then layers them together or uses soldering irons to melt holes into special synthetic paper. She also produces detailed drawings using acrylics or charcoal. The porous nature of her designs enables air and light to pass through them, pointing to Buddhist ideas of the harmonious relationship between humanity and the natural world.
