Sheffield, UK-based freelance paper artist Sarah Louise Matthews creates absolutely stunning sculptures of animals, plants, and objects entirely out of paper.
I am a design-enthusiast, sucker for good packaging design and self-proclaimed perfectionist, who loves to explore, wear stripes and nest when not in the studio.
‘Paper Engineer’ would have been my dream job as a child, had I known of its existence. Well, it would have been a close second after professional Ballerina anyway. I have been a maker for as long as I can remember, from my earliest memories folding origami penguins and cutting paper doll chains, to graduating from my Textile Surface Design Degree in 2011 with a graduate collection of paper jewellery, to now spending my days buried under paper in my studio in Nottingham, cutting, folding, gluing and interlocking to create innovative and playful paper designs.
