Simon SCHUBERT :: "I work with my paper folding technique to create the folded paper reliefs and different other techniques to build my sculptures. I use all kind of techniques to achieve a realistic, illusionary result." - http://www.visualnews.com/2012...

"No ink. No pencils. Just shadows and light on folded white paper. German artist Simon Schubert creates gorgeous images of architectural masterpieces by folding plain, white cellulose paper. As a paper sculptor, Schubert is a master of shadow and light; the depth of each fold measures just millimeters, yet each one creates just enough shade to give them the illusion of palatial quarters. The huge empty rooms in Schubert’s works convey a feeling of isolation and loneliness. Inspired by Samuel Beckett, whose image was his first paper folding project, and Edgar Allen Poe, he sticks to themes mystery to “confront the viewer with his own subconscious fears and anxieties.”"

Very cool. If Robb sees that he'll have to try I fear. He one built an amazing 3D paper sphere (out of manually cut out paper rings) for a pop up card... Best I dont show him.
