Japanese Paper Puppets Come To Life


Haruki Nakamara has a real eye for the spectacular and his latest creations only further illustrate his unique talents. By using paper as his sole material, the Japanese designer transforms his sheets into all kinds of objects from kirigami toys to unfolding puzzles. These gifs show some of his best works including a karakuri puppet of a penguin bomb and a squeezable puppet that reveals a rabbit’s disguise after removing a wolf mask.
Nakamura’s designs are really something you want to get your hands on but he currently only ships within Japan. You can still check out his online shop to see his latest additions to his portfolio, or even try and make one yourself! See the tutorials below!
