Matt Mendez: Square by Paper Donut

It’s been a while since we have written about Paper Donut and you may remember their piece for the Curious Story involving a paper crafted breakfast scene quite reminiscent of Zelda.
Since then, Alexis Facca has been quite busy with the redesigning of the site as well as some pretty cool new projects, one of which happens to be this space music video for French DJ/Composer Matt Mendez entitled Square. Taking the inspiration from the song, the cassette tape evolves throughout this spatial universe from Space to No Man’s Land and onward to Crazy City all the while animating and changing colors along the way.

Interview with Paper Artist Nathalie Boutté

Nathlie Boutté is a very talented self-taught paper artist based out of Montreuil, near Paris, France, whose work can be described as delicate yet powerful. She creates portraits that are striking, where she uses long narrow strips of paper that are meticulously assembled creating a feather effect that constantly evolves. I’m pleased to share our interview with her and we hope you enjoy it too!

Scalpel Works by Georgia Russell

“A play of solids and voids as well as content and proportions, the wispy creations explore the notion of an unseen network of energetic motions while illustrating the transient quality of a single moment.” — Designboom
Scottish-born, Paris based Georgia Russell is no amateur when it comes to manipulating photographs into rhythmic textural images by way of paper under the knife. Her pieces transport you to different times and evoke countless emotions that add to the narrative of each piece.

Fairy Tales and Monsters Paper Cut by Damian O’Hara

Damian O’Hara, a Northern Irish graphic designer currently living in France, created a paper cut poster to promote an arts festival in London called Fairy Tales and Monsters. The illustration is based on dreaming and the monsters and fairy tales that can fill our heads. Within this piece he has referenced 25 different fairy tales and a few classic old movie monsters. He wanted to go for an organic feel having the imagery be woven, similar to ones weaving imagination when being told a story.
