The possibilities of paper


Collage is only one of the trends within a massively trending PAPER. Everywhere where it’s “cool” to be will be something made of paper. Paper art installations and manipulated books are the favourites in the UK now.Su BlackwellSu Blackwell
Artists, craftsmen and designers experiment with paper features for the last few years. Chinese artist Li Hongbo has amazed the world with his stretching paper sculptures at the same time there are 3D printers available already.
The paper popularity raised with the popularity of sustainable lifestyle and recycling (eco-friendly materials, recycled art) worldwide. Paper is affordable material especially when it is recycled. An artist from any country can use paper (recycle magazines, labels, cardboard) to make their art due to it’s availability. Therefore again paper proves itself as THE medium for the revolution subject. Simon Kirk
