Japanese Artist Creates Insanely Detailed Sculptures Using Nothing but Balloons
Masayoshi Matsumoto is a self-taught artist from Japan who twists ordinary balloons and creates mind-blowing realistic sculptures that could turn any party into a real wonderland. He doesn’t use any glue or adhesives, which makes his technique even more remarkable. A pink octopus, a scary cobra, a majestic flamingo — these are only a few examples of his creations, which were inspired by his love of nature.
Bright Side couldn’t help but feel these sculptures would come alive while looking at them. We’d love to share some breathtaking pictures with you.

Masayoshi doesn’t sell his sculptures and doesn’t offer his services at parties.
Why, in your opinion, does Masayoshi not sell his sculptures, but destroys them instead? Would you do the same with your works of art, if you made any?

Reminds me of those clowns at birthday parties when I was a kid
He could sell them for charity if he doesn't want them
