Ann Wood, the creative artist of Minneapolis, turns paper into a magical matter, relying on talent, precision and poetic view of nature. With a unique elegance, he makes 3D sculptures of animals, plants, vegetables and mushrooms that look so real that at first glance the audience hardly believes that all of these sculptures are made of paper only.
From the delicate wings of butterflies and curved leaves to the rough skin of the fungi or the gentle shine of a tomato, everything in Wood’s works is full of precision, patience and deep understanding of natural forms. He uses techniques such as layer cuts, bending, precise coloring and adding very small details, creating a world that diminishes the boundary between reality and fantasy.
Wood, who grew up in a farm, has a deep and familiar look at the natural world, and this acquaintance is clearly seen in his works. Contrary to the general perception of paper as a temporary or fragile material, he records the most enduring moments of nature with this simple tool. Every work of this artist is an invitation to pause, watch and admire the restless beauties of the world. Anne Wood proves with her work that even the touches of the most ordinary material with love and precision can become a poetic and enduring mood. (Visualflood)
