Kako Ueda is a talented artist in Japan. Ueda chose the versatile and fragile paper as its medium term due to its rich history in Japanese culture. Ueda used a meticulous process of cutting paper to create images and achieve an impressive result. His great thoroughness and attention to detail make each one of his pieces is a true work of art

Kako Ueda claims paper is a “two and a half” dimensional medium. Though it is flat, it brings a new perspective to drawings; and is something in itself, rather than simply a backdrop upon which some other medium can shine. Ueda favors color over the flat white of plain paper, and often dresses the cuts in watercolor or acrylic.

On occasion, Ueda has put together entire cut paper installations that employ both flat cut paper compositions as well as three dimensional paper sculptures.

With the amount of color, and precision involved in each piece, every piece is unique and beautiful. I think this artist's work represents the concept of line and form, and I've found these works to be very inspirational.
