Paper Fabrics

Completely enamored with Jennifer Collier's paper creations. She bonds, waxes, and stitches turning every day pieces of paper into unique fabrics which she then uses to re-create traditional objects like knives, tea cups, telephones, and even cameras and dresses. In her own words, "the papers themselves serve as both the inspiration and the media for my work, with the narrative of the books and papers suggesting the forms. I tend to find items then investigate a way in which they can be reused and transformed; giving new life to things that would otherwise go unloved or be thrown away."
