Preparing to tell our readers about another talented author, be it a sculptor, artist or installation master, you think - really people still have something to surprise, shock and shock the public, given that we have already seen a lot of amazing works, the most real masterpieces. Moreover, when it comes to art such as paper art … But our next master, British artist and stylist Chrissie Macdonald, once again proves that miracles have not yet disappeared, and that paper, as a material for creativity, has a powerful and inexhaustible potential. What Chrissy creates are called paper sculptures, but most of all they look like toy prototypes of real, "adult" things. Some of her works look so "real". By the way, for her work, the girl uses not only "fresh" paper, but also old magazines, catalogs, advertising booklets and brochures.
A talented designer, Chrissy McDonald can create everything from paper, from prototypes of household appliances to highly realistic food items, from furniture to jewelry and accessories. The artist's paper sculptures have been used to decorate promotions, shop windows and exhibitions. Works from her portfolio were also commissioned by such large companies as The New York Times Magazine, Central Saint Martins and Wonderland Magazine.
