England-based paper cutting artist and printmaker Pippa Dyrlaga creates beautiful contemporary artworks using a single sheet of paper. Utilizing traditional techniques, she transforms a blank page into a swan, bear, plant-filled landscape, robot, etc.
She began her paper cutting journey back in 2010 and explains that she mostly seeks inspiration from the natural world and the things she is surrounded by. She also has been inspired by Greek mythology and lore.
“The simplicity of a blank sheet of paper appeals to me. Paper is used in so many aspects of our lives and used to communicate with each other, and I want to do this through my work,” the artist wrote on her personal website. “There is nothing as ordinary as a blank sheet of paper, but it has so many possibilities and can be turned into something beautiful or meaningful, without adding anything to it.”
You can find images of her work on her Instagram account where she has attracted more than 96,000 followers and on Facebook which she updates regularly.
