Snowy World 360 (Yuki furu mori)

Yusuke Oono has created yet another dioramic little scene of finely cut paper that fans out in a circle and can be viewed from all sides. A classic winter landscape unfolds in which animals gather round a fir tree blanketed in white. Boxes tied up with ribbons dot the ground, already giving a clue as to who we might find standing with a sack of gifts slung over one shoulder on the other side of the tree. Amidst the silently drifting snowflakes, a snowman seems to wave to our jolly friend as the yearly preparations to deliver presents begin again.
