How many unwritten songs …? Not to mention the unpainted pictures, uncomplicated poems, untold fairy tales - and unfinished films, which still have everything to come. Of course, if the one who is destined to do this takes up the job with the same enthusiasm with which an Australian artist Daniel Agdag is working on his large-scale art project called " Sets for a Film I'll Never Make". From ordinary cardboard, which is used to make boxes, he makes amazing sculptures of buildings, strange devices and mechanisms, as if preparing scenery for sci-fi films. Daniel Egdag's genius is multifaceted, and manifests itself not only in sculpture and painting. The artist is also a director. short animated films, where he often uses scenery similar to those that were included in the series of cardboard sculptures. That is why it is called "A selection for films that I will never make." Which is not surprising, because the sculptures that the artist creates from packaging cardboard, reminiscent at the same time of steampunk, science fiction novels and adventure films in the spirit of science fiction writers of the beginning of the last century.

Unusual sculptures made of cardboard amaze the imagination with detail, so meticulous that you can see the smallest details, right down to the thin wires, tiny buttons, covers, handles, doors and gears. However, the author prefers to call these masterpieces made of simple and even banal material simply and without pathos: cardboard sketches. And this is more than modest, considering that Daniel Egdag creates each sculpture without preliminary drawings, markings and plans, but entirely on improvisation and imagination.
