Soo Min Kim – who describes himself as an “artist in the cardboard cups” – not only shares photographs of the finished artworks but also shoots videos where his work process is shown in detail. With a white paint, he erases part of the logo of the famous cafeteria and then, he takes a green pen, a paper cutter and a pair of scissors, and using the face of the mermaid as a base, transforms it into instantly recognizable characters.

So, next time you are served a drink in a plastic or cardboard cup, feel lucky because probably someday these cups could be part of a museum exposition of “cup art”. Check out some of Soo Min Kim’s creations below.
