Friday Night Flicks: Manabu Kosaka

I recently wrote a short bio that included the line "Cathryn Miller began playing with paper in early childhood, and still believes that anything —except, perhaps, internal combustion engines— can be made out of paper."

Scherenschnitt

Die Geschichte des Scherenschnitts nimmt vor mindestens 2000 Jahren in China ihren Anfang. Genau dort, im fernen Osten, wird diese Handwerkskunst auch heute noch gepflegt. Über Indonesien, Persien und den Balkan gelangte sie dann erst viel später bis nach Mitteleuropa. So ordnet man den ersten europäischen Scherenschnitt dem 15. oder 16. Jahrhundert zu. Damals waren es vor allem Frauen aus der Oberschicht oder Nonnen in Klöstern, welche sich der Kunst widmeten und vorwiegend Porträts, religiöse Sujets, Liebes- oder Freundschaftsbriefe schnitten.

Der erste Scherenschnitt, der immer noch als typisch Schweizerisch gilt, tauchte Mitte des 19. Jahrhunderts auf. Es war Johann Jakob Hauswirth, der aus schwarzem und buntem Papier erstmals einen Alpaufzug im Simmental schnitt. Damit begründete er eine bis heute lebende Tradition.

Quale scena di D&D mettereste nel vostro scrigno magico?
Uno scrigno medievale che nasconde una scena di D&D in papercutting, retroilluminata da LED. Ogni livello è ritagliato a mano su carta di bamboo: un’avventura da appendere al muro. ⚔️🕯️

a super old artistamp design that fared poorly in my archive. it has it all: handdrawn border, visual pun, and an overblown sense of drama.
