Lives and works in the outskirts of Tokyo, Japan. She began her career as a paper cutout artist in 2008. Using black drawing paper and hand-dyed Japanese paper, she creates original paper cutouts that resemble stained glass.

We have a series of products in collaboration with Kyuuka TOYODA, a Calligraphy master. Calligraphy is a traditional Japanese art form where the tension of the brush stroke and the sense of accomplishment when the work is completed are the real joys.
maasa laser cutting technology makes it possible to produce the art products, perfectly reproduced in intentional blurs of ink and the movement of striking stroke and stillness, which we find the charms in calligraphy.
