Papercraft Diorama by Yumiko Matsui

Posted by Alex in Arts & Crafts on September 17, 2008 at 1:30 pm


Yumiko Matsui is a Japanese artist specializing in fantastic dioramas made out of paper. This one is of the Dotonbori Street in Osaka:

Dotonbori is one of Osaka’s main shopping areas and entertainment districts, and is also known as a food destination. It is a popular tourist destination. It is famous for big cheesy neon signs on the street. Those signs become part of the culture of Osaka. Dotonbori street gets busier at night because of the lights.

    I lived in Osaka last year. I actually recognize a lot of those buildings and landmarks. The Giant Crab, The Clown, the Fugu restaurant. Brings back some fun memories! Awesome!
