According to Herrera, her work is a way of bridging the gap between man and nature, repairing this broken relationship by reproducing its elements in paper form. Her sculptures portray the ideal state of a thing and also act like a model of representation of a reality that doesn’t suffer any change. Her work is, therefore, is also an act of resistance against the passage of time.

“When I started to work with paper, I was developing very structural elements,” she told My Modern Met, relaying her creative process. “I used to have a lot of strips of paper that I used to cut and glue to form a volume.” According to Herrera, this process is very flexible, as almost any shape can be created with paper. “I spend a lot of hours collecting images of the subject in different positions,” she says, “then I do some reading to find the right measurements.” 

According to her personal website, her interest in economic materials (mainly paper, but also wire, cardboard, and plastic), is based on their potential of transformation. Much like patterns found in nature, her sculptures comprehend massive groups of elements that together compose a major complex system.

“I’ve always loved paper,” she told Ballpitmag. “I love the tactile feel of good paper. The smell of old paper. The myriad forms paper can take. I also love that paper often seems ephemeral and delicate, but under the right circumstances, it can last lifetimes.”

Based in Boulder, Colorado, Redlinger is very much informed by her natural surroundings. “There’s a lot of open space around my home in Colorado, and I love watching the colors of the landscape change throughout the seasons,” she says. “I visit plant nurseries a lot, and botanical gardens when I can, to see what’s blooming. And I’ve recently become enamored with the floral paintings of Odilon Redon.”

Her work process includes copious amounts of research on her subjects both before and during the making process. This means studying live plants and flowers, but also online image searches and combing through books and magazines. The result is simply breathtaking (we can’t stress this enough!)

See for yourself.

Inspired by historical botanical prints, Wood grew up on a farm in Iowa and was surrounded by nature, plants, and gardens. Now she uses her own backyard in Minnesota as a place of exploration, studying closely her plants so as to understand their form better.

“I thought, I’m going to try making plants and I’m going to share them on Instagram and see what happens,” she recalled in an interview with Design Sponge. “With the daily build-up of sharing pictures of my work, it’s spurred me on to keep exploring and refining this desire.”

Her artwork indeed caught on and with more than 120k followers on Instagram alone, there’s no slowing down for Wood. “I wanted something more connective, to connect outward to a wide range of people,” she explained. “Seeing my dad’s response to plants showed me that there is a vehicle that I can really get on and feel that connection to people that might not normally connect to art. But gardening — people love gardening. So that’s where I really started with the whole idea.”

This Barcelona-based artist creates miniature paper plants and she needs between five to 20 hours to finish each one of her little projects.

“I find it very important to push my limits and capacities while creating, and I also push the limits of the materials themselves”, said Raya, “It’s a constant challenge for me. Can I make this in a paper? How real can I make it look? How small can I make it? I really enjoy the mix of excitement and a bit of fear when I’m trying to create something new. I am always wondering whether it will work out as I imagine”.

She prefers creating exotic flowers like a bird of paradise, blue Himalayan poppies, tiny king proteas, and cacti. To demonstrate how patient Raya really is, we’ll only mention that the smallest plants she’s created are shorter than an inch.

She creates tiny paper plants using the micro style of paper cutting technique. She uses different types of paper and colors. In making the intricate designs, she applies sharp precision cutters and blades tools and rarely uses scissors.

After being inspired by other artists, she began crafting 3D paper plants and this passion progressively grew. Through her art, Lissova wants to encourage others and show that plants can always bring life to art.
