Did you ever imagine a cut up book could be so creative and beautiful?
I didn’t.
Her works of art put my JC Penney based paper dolls to shame, but then again, that comparison isn’t even fair even considering the vast age difference. Su obviously has an abundance of patience and a great love of paper because she cuts each piece by hand.
I will always cherish the innocent era of playing in my grandmother’s bedroom with paper doll homes spread out from her cedar dresser so shiny and clean, all the way over to the corner of the room next to her side of the bed that always smelled of powder.
Cut out advertisement models and furniture made of paper laying flat on the floor, but in my imagination they were talking, laughing, cooking, sleeping and walking to the neighbors house.
Childhood innocence and creativity is so wonderful.
When we can grow up and let our wildest imaginations bloom from paper dolls to works of cut out book art, it just proves that life can be an exciting adventure!
