About Mayuko
Using the hand-cut paper skill she has practiced for over two decades, Mayuko Fujino creates stencil illustrations, collage art, and surface pattern designs. Mayuko’s organic shapes, simple compositions, and use of calming colors are influenced by the artists from the Mingei Japanese folk art movement such as Keisuke Serizawa, and graphic designers from the early 20th century who fused traditional Japanese aesthetics and Western art influences such as Hisui Sugiura.
