heres some work i have been doing , enjoy!

http://img73.imageshack.us/img73/878/dsc00275lg1.jpg (http://imageshack.us)

this A5 size all by hand, all structures are built from one regular sized paper [180-200gsm] they all are one single cut piece which remains attatched to the base. there is nothing other than the paper used to assemble. adobe illustrator, printer, paper, my good eyesight and a scalpel is all i use.[oh and i now use blutack to attach the template so i can have plain white finished product]

the next pics are a different phase, seedling indeed!
the partly assembled version is about an inch smaller around two edgs than A6, its about as small as i can go without compromising my sanity. i have fully assembled it but i dont have a photo, i do have some pics of a dual A4 version though, which is what follows

I like. =] I think I would have been more surprised about using paper as your art were it not for having seen http://www.petercallesen.com before, however. >_<

What I like best about this is that you didn't give any bull about "Well, I was inspired by the human condition, y'know, and how we are what we make as a whole..."

You just made an intensely cool piece of art, and let it speak for itself.

well be assured there is some theory behind it, but if i told you it wouldnt help anyone.
its more of a general comment on our preoccupations, the answer keeping small and plain to avoid them in turn... its all in the sig.

however ive only just realised that these feelings of mine have been relayed through this model, i started it with purely aesthetic purposes, which i believe it delivers.

its very exhilerating to have a need to chase an idea in this manner, to have my own constructs run ahead of me and force me catch up. to be required to push a project is the worst situation to be in, now i dont have to!

Excellent, really great stuff. Your flames in your fireplace are cardboard too! That's hardcore.

Do you have a cardboard car? That would be cool :D

Is the fine art degree going well? I take it you're in your 2nd year now?

actually i have suspended my study to try and clear my head, if all goes to plan i will be restarting my second year in september… no answer yet however.

Sorry to disappoint, but the flames are made of canes and tissue paper. There is a light inside, gives a warm glow when it isn't cold enough to build a real fire.
You might also notice the portrait of sea-shells in the first photo.

I have been considering having the dog cut from sheet metal and leaving it in the garden to rust.
Based on my English Springer named Willow, though the real thing is considerably more wild looking

Image search "Sylvie Reno" for some great cardboard sculpture.
