Rachael Ashe - Paper Cut Sculptures

Lovely paper sculptures from artist Rachael Ashe. It is really interesting to see the way she has explored free standing sculptures as opposed to flat paper cuts. The lighting in the photographs is beautiful, and the shadows cast really emphasize the delicacy of the structures. 

"I’m trying to work out how to make interesting structures from paper that can support themselves when most of the material has been removed. The paper cutting makes a big difference to the integrity of the piece, how it holds together, and its ability to stand."
