unbe-leaf-ably magnificent





Lorenzo Duran’s delicate cutaway leaf art is nothing short of spectacular. The Spanish artist uses leaves as his canvas and intricately cuts away segments in a technique akin to those of traditional Chinese Jianzhi, German scherenschnitte and Swiss paper cutting.

The splendour of natural objects inspires Duran to stunningly experiment with his creativity. And the detail per leaf is so complex that I can only marvel at the amount of time and attention each piece must require.
