Japanese Rice Mural


I saw this on the news today and I was completely blown away! Enough to hop back on after my hiatus and tell yal about it! Def have to add seeing this to my bucket list!


While the western world has their crop circles, the rice paddies of Japan are graced with elaborate murals quite apparently made with human hands. These Japanese Rice Murals are a part of a Japanese tradition in two farming towns, Inakadate and Yonezawa, Japan. The paddy art in Inakadate, for example, spans 15,000 square meters and can only be seen from the air or atop a tower in the local castle. This art has been celebrated in Japan, capturing the curiosity of the local spirit and making their labor — the raising of rice — an art in and of itself.

Simon Schubert Art



Simon Schubert Cologne, Germany

I just thought this was really cool. He makes the art by making hella folds in the paper (LOL @ hella)
“Most of the people who see the work are surprised that the pictures are created by folding paper, they don’t believe it when I tell them. Many of them think I’ve used paint or pencil to create the affect of light and shade. But when they realise the pictures are actually folded they are quite impressed,” says Simon whose work sells for upwards of $5,000 a piece.
