The first bit of Teruya’s work that I came across was a series entitled “Corner Forest,” in which the artist cut detailed trees out of toilet paper rolls and meticulously arranged them to create beautiful forests.
After taking some time to look over his website, I saw that Teruya’s featured projects all seem to center around taking everyday objects and transforming them into items of whimsy or socially provocative pieces. Aside from “Corner Forest,” my favorite series was definitely “Notice- Forest Series.” Basically I really love when an artist can make you look twice at something that would normally be cast away without a moment’s hesitation.
Take a look at Teruya’s projects yourself to get a sense of the meticulous beauty that this artist creates!
