The origami paper city
An origami artist creates city from paper only to burn it down.
An origami artist from Japan, Wataru Ito, has spent four years crafting an incredible model city from paper - but now plans to burn it down. The entire piece - which measures 2.4m by 1.8m and is 1m high - has been crafted using only paper, which Wataru stuck together using craft glue, an art knife and holepuncher
Mr Ito, 25, started building his 'Castle on the Ocean' when he became bored during his university entrance exams. Using just a knife and glue, the art student built up an entire cityscape over four years by cutting and folding hundreds of pages of craft paper. Picture: SWNS
The finished piece is now being displayed for the first time at an exhibition on the artificial island of Umihotaru, near Tokyo. Picture: SWNS
But incredibly, Wataru, a second year student at Tokyo University of the Arts, plans to set his work on fire when the show is over. Picture: SWNS
He said: "I'm very happy to display my work at a place where people who don't have an interest in arts can come and see it. Picture: SWNS
"Looking back now I sometimes ask myself 'did I really manage to create this?'". Picture: SWNS
"I am devoted while I am working on my projects but I quickly lose interest when I complete them". Picture: SWNS
"When the exhibition is over I will burn the castle. I thought I could see it rising up from the ashes if I took a video and played it backwards". Picture: SWNS
Wataru, who lives in Tokyo but is originally from Saitama, Japan, started working on the castle while he was studying to become an art student. Picture: SWNS
After failing a university entrance exam three times he focused on this project, which became so large he had to sleep under a table in his tiny flat. Picture: SWNS
The city's centrepiece is a castle which is loosely based upon El Temple de la Sagrada Familia, in Barcelona, Spain. Picture: SWNS

Một sáng tạo tuyệt vời với công trình trong suốt bốn năm , nhưng không hiểu sao Wataru Ito lại muốn thiêu hủy
sau khi triển lảm ? Nếu có một lời khuyên thì Snow White sẽ nói gì với anh chàng này đây ?
