Paris-based designer Maud Vantours is a master at constructing incredible 3D sculptures and mesmerizing patterns out of paper. After carefully cutting out assorted shapes, she meticulously builds up layer upon layer, superimposing the papers to create intricate and colorful works of art. Her paper works range from geometric patterns to dizzying spirals to delicately crafted flowers. With amazing texture, elaborate detail, and vibrant colors, each piece is a joy to look at.
Although Vantours graduated from the Parisian school Duperr with a specialization in textiles and design, her favorite medium is paper because the works can “transcend a simple material and transform it into a work of art.” She says, “I love to create original graphics with multicolored and dreamlike landscapes.”
