6. The same artwork created in white paper strips can be seen in these pictures.

7. See how they imbibe the colour of the light source that they are observed under. One appears to be yellowish orange and one emerges like an ethereal blue.

 

Cut different sizes, fold them in different ways, try placing them at different distances, look at them under altered lighting conditions, and try everything possible with the medium. Some attempts will fail and some will produce unthought-of of results.

8. Artworks can appear to be different depending on the where you place the light. In this case it has been placed above the artwork.

9. The light source is placed below the artwork here. (You can also try manipulating a good sketch on Photoshop with all the layer properties in order to understand this)

 

10. Twisted paper strips have been coerced into creating wavy lines under the effect of a white light for this artwork.

Different arrangements, compact or scattered, try sticking them in different ways. Twist the paper, roll it or bend it. Play with the position of the light source. Become one with the medium before selecting the final approach.

11. Perfect horizontal white threads tied closely on a wooden frame create a smooth gradient.

12. Zigzag strips create a distorted looking sun in this image that is turning into waves.

 

Simplicity in arrangement or a complicated layout - each one defines different stories about the same sunset. Your story is written in paper, is it complex, easy to identify with or a fantasy?
