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: Continuing with my story of a traveling knight I imagined the places and things they may experience on a journey. A traveler needs resources like food as well as materials like a whetstone for sharpening weapons or tools, and leather or thread for repairing bags or clothing. Larger towns would have something of a market where more goods could be found and I imagined a street with colorful stalls of a variety of wares.
