PAIN FREE PAPERCUT

PAIN FREE PAPERCUT

This chap is incredible. Most of his work is done using nothing but A4 paper - the stuff we use everyday without thinking - plus a knife and maybe a bit of glue to create incredibly fragile, beautiful, fun and in a wierd way quite tragic creations.

Over to the man himself, Peter Callesen: "I find this materialization of a flat piece of paper into a 3D form almost a magic process - or maybe one could call it obvious magic, because the process is obvious and the figures still stick to their origin, without the possibility of escaping. I find the A4 sheet of paper interesting to work with, because it probably still is the most common and consumed media and format for carrying information today, and in that sense it is something very loaded. This means that we rarely notice the actual materiality of the A4 paper"

For what it's worth, I think he's right. I love all his work but there is something particularly breathtaking about the stuff on A4. Anyway there are too many awesome pictures to show you so just have a look at his very user friendly website:

Informative, but not convincing. Something is missing but what I can not understand. But I will say frankly: bright and benevolent thoughts!...
