Nice to meet you.
My name is Naoto Umeda.
I have won special prize in
the Mellow Art Award 2020
(run in cooperation with the magazine “Bijutsu Techo”)
from among more than 13,000 entries from 25 countries around the world.
(The jury consisted of Professor Katsumi Hayakawa, Faculty of Art,
Kyoto University of Art, and Yumiko Sakuma, writer).
I was also awarded a Certificate of Artistic Merit
by the Pinacotec Museum of the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
I am a paper cutout artist
who also works kept in public museum collections.
Let’s enjoy creating paper cutout art together.
