Working with paper—a material both familiar and versatile—paper artist Fukuda Sayumi creates expressive botanical artworks that evoke the delicate transience and vibrant energy of nature.
After studying design and art in New York, she founded Magnolia Art, an art brand dedicated to paper flowers. Today, her practice encompasses installations, window displays, and collaborations with global brands.
Through delicate handcraft techniques—cutting, layering, and assembling—Fukuda Sayumi transforms papers of diverse colors and textures into expressive botanical artworks. Balancing ephemerality with strength, delicacy with boldness, and nature with creativity, her works invite viewers to reconnect with their own emotions and memories.

Inspired by the excitement of summer’s arrival, Fukuda Sayumi expressed the warmth of clear sunlight through crisp white paper accented with vibrant yellow. Framed by seasonal botanicals such as plumeria and bird of paradise, the composition highlights the clean aesthetic of the haircare products, while the subtle color variations of Japanese paper and the carefully layered leaves create a sense of depth, freshness, and refined elegance.
Stay tuned for new seasonal creations by Fukuda Sayumi, unveiled each month.
