In 2013, Japanese Twitter user @Kya7y discovered something that is nothing short of magnificent. It was a highly-detailed maze created on an A1 size paper (a 33 x 23 in paper). It was dated 1983. When she asked her father about the hand-drawn maze, her father, Papa, explained that it was his masterpiece, which he made for 7 years.
In 2015, Spoon & Tamago decided to partner with her and her Papa, and now full-scale replicas are on sale over at the site. The maze was also featured in the comic One Punch Man. Because of the site’s partnership with him, Papa was also able to create another maze in 2017. Now, Papa, who we only by the name K. Nomura, releases yet another mind-boggling maze — Papa's Maze 3.0.
… he once again picked up his pen in an attempt to outdo himself. Using only his hand and a ballpoint pen, the artist began the daunting daily task of transferring the image from his brain, onto canvas.
The maze was supposed to take much longer but the global pandemic-induced lockdown allowed Papa to work uninterrupted, speeding up its completion. The result is easily the most dense and challenging yet beautiful maze we’ve ever seen.
See the photos over at the site.
