Paper artist Alia Woodley thinks of art as a storytelling platform and uses it accordingly. “As a child, I was always making and creating in some form or another,” she told Ballpit Magazine. “I think art is one of the best ways we have for storytelling, next to film and music. It’s amazing to see that there are so many ways to create.”
And if creativity is endless, so is paper art. “I love working with paper,” Woodley exclaimed. “It seems a simple material, but the options for using it are endless! You can fold it, cut it, tear it, crumple it, crease it, whatever you like to get your wanted outcome.”
“Paper allows me to construct three-dimensional shapes, it allows me to explore scale, texture, and color. No restraints. My mother informs me that even as a small child, I was engaged in creating shapes and forms with various materials including salad leaves.”
