Monomi Ono wanted to choose 3D animation as her profession, but to study it in the university of Osaka you have to pay a lot. To practice, she started using cardboard boxes from Amazon deliveries, and it became a passion and a real art.

It was only recently when Eduardo "Duda" Lozano tried the style for the first time, but he was instantly amazed by the technique. Now his tattoo shop in Sao Paolo, Brazil, is one of the most popular spots to visit if you want to get yourself an embroidery tattoo.

Japanese artist Haruki, better known as Twitter user @02ESyRaez4VhR2l, transforms used Japanese snack boxes into realistic figures. His artwork has a name in Japanese and it is called “Kiries” or “Kirigami” – the art of paper-cutting. Kirie is more associated with traditional Japanese art, but Haruki does it in his own creative way.
