Rumpelstiltskin
You may remember Mandy Smith‘s incredible Amsterdam-inspired masterpiece of an astoundingly intricate morphed house of paper, complete with the detailing inside for her short film entitled “The Move”. It seems she has made an update to her site recently and has included some new fashion pieces. This in particular was based on the classic Brothers Grimm tale of Rumpelstiltskin. The dress is made entirely from baking paper and the wheel from cardboard, the room and props are all designed, created and painted by hand.

Linus Hui: Masque of the Animals
“I make stuff out of paper and take funny photos. If I don’t take funny photos, I take broody photos. I don’t like my paper cut-out objects being called Origami. They are not. Instead of taking pictures in the real world, I like to bring my real world into the real world with verses and costumes.” — Linus Hui

Merry Christmas From Bergdorf Goodman!
First and foremost Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays! I hope everyone has had a great year and is ready to take charge in 2012!
For the holidays my friends and I had the recent pleasure of gathering to do a walk New York to check out the many Christmas windows up and down Fifth and Madison Avenues. One window that particularly stuck out in my mind for its sheer beauty and my love for zebras, was the Bergdorf Goodman window displays.
This year one of their windows entitled “Teacher’s Pets” showcased a 3-dimensional classroom, using 300 different types of papers, filled with black and white paper animals. Those animals included the life-sized paper zebra, ostrich, panda bear, aardvark, white peacock, and more. As the ‘students’ posed within the cascade of zoological textbooks, the teacher – dressed in a black and white lace Marchesa gown – presides over the paper bestiary. New York calligrapher, Bernard Maisner, provided hand-lettered labels, in Latin, for all the animals. Below I have included some of the close-up shots I got of the window, though needless to say they were mostly of the zebra. I wish everyone a safe and happy holiday!
