I have previously introduced Japanese paper carving master Akira Nagaya’s carving technique that turns decay into magic. He can carve out wire-like fine lines with just a blade, and now we can even use it to leave messages. All the sticky notes have become his creative materials, which makes people admire his craftsmanship again! Many familiar anime characters are carved out of a small piece of note paper, and the hollowed-out works are folded to add a three-dimensional effect through light, making the The work instantly changes from a flat image to a 3D shape.
If I hadn’t mentioned such delicate carving skills, I would have thought it was done by painting! All this happened because Akira Nagaya discovered his passion for paper carving while working in a sushi restaurant when he was young, cutting ingredients and carving bamboo leaves. Enthusiasm, after years of practice, there is no pattern that can defeat him!
