Paper Sculptures by Artist Li Hongbo

Earlier this year Beijing artist Li Hongbo opened his first solo exhibition titled, Pure White Paper in Australia at Dominik Mersch Gallery featuring his flexible sculptures made of common paper. Each sculpture is comprised of thousands of sheets of paper manually glued on top of each other in a sort of honeycomb composition allowing the layers to be pulled and stretched like an accordion. These paper stacks are then cut and sculpted using an electric saw into figurative forms. See the video of the Pure White Paper exhibition after the jump!
