Reut Akerman

Reut Akerman is a collage artist who transforms the beauty of Japanese Chiyogami papers into layered, luminous works of art. Each piece is composed of dozens of carefully chosen papers, creating a rich interplay of color, texture, and pattern.

Rooted in centuries of tradition, Chiyogami originated in Japan as hand-silkscreened paper inspired by kimono designs. Its intricate patterns and vivid colors tell stories of nature, harmony, and balance — themes that deeply influence Reut’s creative process.

Through her work, Reut seeks to bring a sense of peace and calm to the viewer. Every collage is a quiet reflection — an invitation to pause, breathe, and find beauty in stillness.

By blending traditional materials with contemporary design, she captures moments of flow, balance, and gentle connection.
