The artist restores the tradition of paper-cutting, adding to them something new and interesting, thus enriching the artistic treasure of the people. “Vytynanka” by Irene Tokarska - is thick stripes and geometric paintings, abundant vegetable weave, numerous fowl. “Vytynankas” from paper are viable in today's cities and are used as Christmas decorations for windows and window-shops. This indicates, that the paper decorations have a close relationship with the other arts. Complementing each other, they create unsurpassed masterpieces or just comfortable and beautiful things. “Vytynanka” really became popular. It shows a large number of exhibitions held in Ukraine and abroad.
