Collection: Who we are?

"Making a magic with black pen, ink and a scalpel!"

Mono (Sooeun) Ahn is an award-winning professional   illustrator    and paper cut artist. After working as an   animator and studying    textile design in South Korea,  Mono immigrated to Canada. 

In 2013 she realized her dream of completing an Honours    Bachelor of Arts Illustration degree from Sheridan     College.  Mono also received Sheridan’s 2013 Applied   Arts.  Student   Award  for Children’s Illustration.

After graduation, Mono realized another dream by opening her own business, called the Silkpulp. Her current passion is the art of paper cut illustration: intricate designs painstakingly carved with a surgical blade, requiring both patience and a steady-hand.
Silkpulp’s speciality is paper cut greeting cards, posters and custom illustrations. Mono’s organic designs imagine a whimsical universe of fluid organic shapes and colourful forest creatures. A magical land, where trees and flowers replace skyscrapers and subways, and where animals with big personalities seem ready to leap right off the page. 

We’re a husband-and-wife creative duo based in Toronto, passionate about bringing everyday joy through illustrated stationery and lifestyle goods. From art prints and greeting cards to stickers, mugs, and tote bags, everything we create is thoughtfully designed with storytelling in mind.

We proudly source our supplies locally—from Toronto and other small Canadian businesses—because supporting local makers matters to us just as much as the art itself. Each product is made with care, creativity, and a little bit of love from our home studio.
