Amazing Paper Sculptures. Brooklyn based artist Lauren Clay "creates these three-dimensional sculptures out of papier-mâché and painted cut paper (among many other things) that go far beyond the limits of paper’s two-dimensionality."

But can it go beyond the limits of having to dust those things?

These were not at all what I expected (in a good way!) The second link has some pretty cool sculptures.

Cool stuff, but not what I'd expect from a sculptor named "Clay."

These are great. They somehow have the look of computer graphics, very solid yet weightless somehow, almost like ideas for artwork still unmade. It's a very strong effect, slightly unsettling. I certainly didn't expect to have such a strong, positive reaction to it.

That's a very cool observation, I think you're right! Hadn't thought of it that way.
