Craft Observation






After looking at this post on another blog I was absolutely awestruck. Titled A Castle on the Ocean, this entire installation is made of paper. Having had enough trouble making a cube, I can only imagine the amount of patience and skill it must have taken to put this together.

This piece took over four years to complete, and was all handmade by an art student in Tokyo. Included in his city are electrical lights, a ferris wheel, and even a moving train. The symmetry and the flawless details on the city buildings, staircases, train tracks, etc get illuminated beautifully by the electric lights. Needless to say, this artist is incredibly talented.
