Paper
Cologne artist Simon Schubert creates intricate images of stately homes and palaces simply by folding plain white sheets of paper.
In his paper works Schubert folds and creases the sheets in an extraordinary technique, adding a plastic quality to the plain paper without any graphical aid. Staircases and hallways, insights of stately homes are shown, seemingly on the point of dissolution. The rooms are inhabited by hidden human figures whose ghost-like shadows seem to enter or leave the scene.
The works are made of plain paper. The papers are entirely folded and uncoloured.
