Francene Levinson Contemporary Paper Sculptures
Contemporary Paper Sculptures by Artist Francene Levinson transform modular 3d Origami into beautiful museum quality fine art.
Temptation
This contemporary modular direct paper sculpture
is part of a bird-life themed series."Temptation" is
inspired by the form and feathers of the early
- bird that gets the worm. This
paper sculpture is constructed only of hand cut,
hand folded, archival color, inkjet paper modules,
recycled magazine paper and Ph neutral glue.
There are approximately 3000 triangular double-pocket,
double point modules of
paper linked together. This is an ancient Chinese
paper folding technique called "Zhe Zhi." The
architecture of folded, linked and glued paper
units creates a very strong and durable sculpture
medium which permits direct paper sculpting. The
science of topology dictates the slope and curve
of the surface by the number of points linked in a
circumference. Archival paper is acid free,color
stable, and generally used as legal substrate for
documentation and suitable to last a minimum of
100 years.
