Using nothing but everyday newspaper, expert paper artistChie Hitotsuyamacrafts realistic, exquisitely detailed sculptures of the animal kingdom.
To create each creature, Hitotsuyama skillfully binds rolled and twisted pieces of wet newspaper to each other.
She even utilizes the colored print on newspapers to create impressive gradations.
The process is completed entirely by hand, and requires a tremendous amount of paper prowess.
Animals that live in nature are equal to us in the sense that we live together on this planet.
They are living ordinary everyday lives just like us.
