Papercraft: Incarnate



A perfect human skull carved from a thick stack of obsolete computer manuals.

The perfect embodiment of the dread that courses through the veins of a
first year computer science major upon receiving their first semester reading list.

This work was created as part of the Pilotenkueche residency in Leipzig, Germany. It consists of a thousand paper airplanes hung from the ceiling, grouped like a fleeing flock of birds.

Papercraft: Paper Stained-Glass


Cut Paper Stained-Glass Art by Eric Standley

Eric Standley is vibing on some divine inspiration with his impossibly intricate stained-glass windows made entirely from cut paper. They seem way more mystical and mandala-like than they are institutional.

Papercraft: Origami Masks




Paper artist Joel Cooper folds these astounding masks and tessellations from single pieces of paper. Given the right conditions I might be expected to fold a piece of paper in half, and on a good day even into fourths, but I simply can’t fathom the patience and understanding required to transform paper into three-dimensional objects like this. You can see more of his work on Flickr and even buy some of the pieces on Etsy.
