Concept
"Kirikami" is the traditional art of paper cutting. By only folding and cutting two-dimensional papers, craftsmen create 3D ornaments for sacred occasions. Traditionally, "Kirikami" symbolizes a prayer in Japan. The pure whiteness of a "Kirikami" ornament brings a sense of purity and refreshment. The title "SAWA SAWA" is the sound of trees singing in the fresh breeze. This lighting represents the serene and refreshing sentiment.
