Papier-Mâché, Carta Pesta…
These are animals, plants, creatures, and other things made from scrunched paper, non-recyclable packaging, masking tape, glue, and kitchen roll.
Each piece is moulded meticulously by hand and brought to life out of waste, patience, and a certain amount of weirdness.
I can’t really explain why I make these figures. Some of them have a decorative purpose — they are meant to bring life and colour to special corners — but most of the time, it’s probably just because I can.
What I do know, though, is that every creation, no matter how simple or how strange it turns out, has its own soul… and I’m sure you can see that too.
