You may look at an empty candy box or ramen package and think of it as nothing more than trash - not Japanese artist Harukiru, though. The talented creator is able to repurpose packaging from used products and create true works of art!
If this type of art sounds familiar to you, you may have heard of “kirigami” (not to be confused with “origami”), which dates back to the seventh century. Rather than manipulating a single sheet of paper by folding, kirigami also involves cutting, which opens up a lot more creative possibilities.
Check out some of Harukiru’s newest creations below. If you’d like to see more, check out our previous posts about the artist: here, here, and here.

OMG this is cute, the bird outside its cage, with toys to play with, eventually the artist has birds herself??? Er I think it´s a woman. Please tell me if I´m wrong. But such art is usually rather made by a woman than by a man.
Uh, I agree with the first part, but it can easily be a man. Men can make Gorgeous and delicate art pieces too.

Now this is creative, here´s what to do with packages if you can´t recycle them.
I follow the artist on the social media that Hidreley posted, but I´m often wondering why the upvotes become less and less, the further I scroll down the posts, I always thought the Pandas checked out the whole posts, once they clicked on one, like I do. If I´m not interested in a post I leave it after the first photo and do not upvote at all.
well, the photos with less upvotes get sent to the bottom, as it's organized highest to lowest. the bottom will always have the least upvotes, that's just how it is. (also just because you read a whole post doesn't mean you like everything on it)
