Paper as art - Flurry & Salk

{Owl paper sculpture by Flurry & Salk}

Last week I saw this post over at the Neo Traditionalist about paper wig sculptures. They are amazing, but my jaw hit the floor when I saw these animal masks! This is paper??

They are the creative invention of Nikki Salk & Amy Flurry at Paper Cut Project. Their website explains their mindset:

"Flurry and Salk's custom-made art installations are fueled by a love of fashion and an appreciation of the grace & nuance of this humble material"

They make paper look anything but humble. These are amazing...

See all their creations in What. Their website lists exhibitions in the When section, but nothing in 2011, yet. I wish they had a mailing list because I want to know where & when I can see these in person!

PS The Neo Traditionalist is one of my fave blogs. Please head over there & show Katie Amour, the lovely lady who writes it, some love. She has just launched the 3rd edition of the e-zine, Matchbook. Kudos, Katie!
