Street artists often ask us to make our portraits with a sheet of paper and scissors. And here Bert Simons creates not just portraits of people from paper. He makes them voluminous and very, very realistic.
As a child, we all made some kind of appliqué out of paper, cut something out on it, drew, collected origami, etc. Then there were so many ways to use an ordinary sheet of plain paper. And now the only thing we do with paper is to print all kinds of working documentation on it using a printer.
And artist Bert Simons also uses paper and a printer. True, he pursues exclusively creative goals. This is how he creates 3D portraits of people, first of all, he manually paints many dots on the model's face. Then, with their help, he takes readings and drives them into a computer. A special program analyzes the information received, builds a three-dimensional model of the upper part of a person and translates it into a two-dimensional version.
After that, Bert Simons prints out the resulting flat model, removes unnecessary elements with scissors, and then glues an incredibly complex 3D puzzle. As a result, at the output he gets a three-dimensional portrait of a person, incredibly realistic and unusual.
And these paper people, created by Bert Simons, eat, probably Curious Breakfast, a cardboard meal made by the Paper Donut Company.

For the most part, people learn to wield a scalpel in a medical school, and then in a medical school, they undergo long-term practice, and only then they are allowed to the patient in the operating room.
