Art Hound

Ania Wawrzkowicz was born in Poland but now lives and works in London as a commercial photographer. This is Ania’s personal work, a series entitled Ambiguous Documents which I thought was smart and subtle. It made me remember that not very long ago everything – a life’s worth of documents – was on paper. How quickly we have shifted away from that.

Carole P. Kunstadt’s Old Testament made from her grandfather’s 1904 bible. Her work was in SLASH: Paper Under the Knife at MAD.

3-D paper cuttings by Simone Lourenco, originally from Rio de Janiero. Lourenco currently has work in Miniatures! at Brooklyn gallery, Art 101.

I found her work on Brown Paper Bag where Sara aptly describes Lourenco’s work as “intri­cate sys­tems and designs from a sheet of paper, lay­er­ing and devel­op­ing what looks like liv­ing organisms.” Unlike other artists working with paper, Simone deliberately overworks the material, pushing it as far as she can. The effect is compelling: these pieces are messy and chaotic like the depths of an overgrown jungle.
