Prologue Tale 01
HIMMELSREITER
/ by Julian Park
...And they have forged a spiritual bond with Pegasi, creatures capable of soaring to these lofty heights and galloping across the land. Together, they have established a non-violent civilisation dedicated to the sustainable preservation and restoration of peace and justice.
Prologue Tale 02
HIMMELSREITER
/ by Julian Park
The ethereal realm, home to the 'HIMMELSREITER' clan, resides between the exosphere and thermosphere of Earth, where auroras unfurl below and the Milky Way flows above. In this azure cosmic expanse, the solar winds, imbued with spiritual energy, encounter the purest and most delicate water crystals—vapour that has ascended to the highest reaches of the Earth's atmosphere.
Prologue Tale 03
HIMMELSREITER
/ by Julian Park
The 'HIMMELSREITER' clan descends to Earth as guardians of the just and the weak whenever chaos and discord run rampant, plaguing the vulnerable, and corrupt leaders wield violence and war to suppress the righteous, justifying their unjust gains and pleasures.
Prologue Tale 04
HIMMELSREITER
/ by Julian Park
Thus, the sky-faring tribe of 'HIMMELSREITER' was born. These celestial beings have intrinsically woven the Earth's most pristine aspirations, 'peacefulness' and 'righteousness,' into the very fabric of their being, forming the essence of their flesh and bones.
Prologue Tale 05
HIMMELSREITER
/Julian Park
They operate in groups of seven, carrying out their missions to protect the vulnerable, heal the afflicted, and support the righteous leaders of the Earth.
They do not disregard the fervent prayers of humanity, instead harnessing the pure elements of 'water,' 'light,' and 'sound,' as conveyed through ancient traditions, to infuse the senses of living beings with the power of restoration and purification.
Prologue Tale 06
HIMMELSREITER
/ by Julian Park
They are the eternal guardians of justice and peace.
They remain largely invisible to the clouded eyes of humanity, yet even now they traverse the azure sky of the atmosphere alongside their Pegasi. It is said that the dawn birds begin to sing as they sense the movements of the 'HIMMELSREITER,' detecting subtle changes in sound, light, and humidity.

JPCcc (Complete Codex) method applied
An enchanting and sophisticated paper sculpture technique JPCcc (complete codex) method that employs every part of a single sheet without any wastage! Furthermore, by avoiding factory-produced glue and chemical adhesives, it keeps hands clean and remains environmentally conscious. With no paper discarded, it diminishes the demand for paper resources. Therefore, JPCadvocates for the pursuit of sustainable art.
Also, this method entails that each design element within a single sheet of paper is interconnected, resulting in no separate parts breaking away. This necessitates a higher level of design precision compared to traditional paper sculptures, which are constructed by attaching individually crafted parts. It also demands an exceptional spatial awareness, surpassing conventional standards in sculptural artistry.
These next two photographs dramatically illustrate the transformation of a single sheet of paper intoJPCHIMMELSREITER through theJPC cc method.
