Papierkunst van Su Blackwell

De engelse kunstenares Su Blackwell gebruikt verschillende technieken en materialen om sprookjesachtige installaties te maken. Bij één van de door haar toegepaste technieken maakt zij van boeken en papier prachtige objecten. Zelf zegt zij hier over:

“I use non-art materials such as books and clothes to create work which evokes a sense of dreamy melancholy or magical enchantment. I’m interested in the realm of fairy-tales and folk-legends and have been working on a series of book-works exploring these themes, externalising the pages of the book and allowing it to be read in another way.”
“I find the materialization of the flat piece of paper an almost magical process.”
“As I become more involved in the making, I feel like I am creating small stage sets, inhabited by characters caught up in their own magical, whimsical and sometimes haunting journeys.”
“The book-cut sculptures are displayed in glass cases, like relics found in a Victorian museum.”
