Fabulous paper cutting art by Ahmedabad-based Indian artist Parth Kothekar. He takes inspiration from everyday aspects of life to create his pieces full of details and grace.
This art form made me feel more connected to my work. I felt the ‘life’ in them. Initially, I did this only as a hobby, but the inspiration from my close friends made me consider this as a profession. My artworks are based on everyday aspects of life. If it is challenging, it motivates me. The thing with papercuts is that one doesn’t know the final output until the end. I have an assumption of what it might look and that is what I work with. It is the curiosity of finding out if I have got it that keeps me going.
