Spring 2022
Materials: A single sheet of printer paper, double sided tape
About the project: Taking a single sheet of printer paper and transforming it into a sculpture with the help of cutting instruments, adhesive, and very small amounts of white thread or wire. This project is about exploring the process and creation of art using non-traditional supplies.
My process: I imagined all the things I could create with paper, the possibilities available were limited, but still vast. I found my footing by telling a story.
Inspiration: I knew when starting this project I wanted to try actual sewing and creating a garment. Creating the soft paper is something I learned about in high school and I began that process while things of the techniques I wanted to incorporate. I started with a basic dress shape, adding on after each piece depending on the amount of paper I had left.
