In the meantime, check out these delicate sculptures by Peter Callesen all made with a few cuts and a white sheet of paper. "The paper cut sculptures explore the probable and magical transformation of the flat sheet of paper into figures that expand into the space surrounding them," Callesen explains. "The negative and absent two-dimensional space left by the cut points out the contrast to the three-dimensional reality it creates, even though the figures still stick to their origin without the possibility of escaping. In a sense there is also an aspect of something tragic in many of the cuts." And something simple, precise and beautiful. (via A. and artbns.com)

ReplyDeleteI really don't know how people come up with these incredible ideas. My brain just doesn't look at a sheet of paper and think of potential masterpieces. Unless they involve ink and book binding.
