Japanese Artist Creates Incredibly Intricate Life-Size Insects From Bamboo, And The Result Will Impress You

Sometimes art can look so real, it’s hard to believe it was made by human hands. Noriyuki Saitoh artworks are exactly like that.

This incredibly talented sculptor from Japan creates intricate life-size sculptures of various insects. The artist uses bamboo as his main material and tries to create lifelike creatures. “We are not preparing specimens and replicas, we strictly measure the dimensions and prioritize the appearance, features, and senses rather than proportions being exact,” says the artist.

Take a look at some of his incredible work and check out his social media platforms for more.

    I am a Brazilian digital artist who loves transforming imagination into hyper-real visuals. I work with artificial intelligence and image editing to create what I always wondered as a child: how would our favorite characters look in real life? Over time, many of my artworks have gone viral and were featured in international publications. I have recreated realistic versions of cartoon characters such as Disney and The Simpsons, imagined how celebrities who died young would look today, and even gave modern faces to historical figures like Mona Lisa or Shakespeare. Beyond entertainment, I created Para Não Esquecer, a social project that revisits memorable criminal cases in Brazil. My goal is to honor victims, keep memory alive and remind society that justice and empathy matter. I also write for Bored Panda, where I create articles featuring artists, photographers, rescue stories and feel-good moments from around the world. My work aims to highlight creativity, kindness and emotional storytelling. In everything I do, my purpose is the same: to touch hearts, evoke emotion and make people feel something real.
