ALTA Papercraft - Geometric Paper Sculptures by Anna Trundle

Anna Trundle of ALTA Papercraft [edit: not available] is a papercraft engineer in Melbourne who creates geometric folded paper sculptures as wall art. Australian birds have been a focus, but it's safe to say she can turn just about any animal or object into a colorful, dimensional illustration by combining digital and handcrafted techniques.

I'm loving the sharp angles of this vivid, on-trend pineapple.

Large-scale installations for exhibitions and events are another one of Anna's talents.

In addition to creating site-specific designs and instructing paper craft classes, Anna has been busy creating DIY kits to sell at local markets.

She was interviewed on Creative Unleash [edit: not available] very recently, so rather than my reinventing the wheel by asking similar questions, visit that post to learn more about Anna's design process.

The color-coordinated paper objects in the two photos above were made by Anna to illustrate a stop motion video for Etsy-Australia's Creative Courage Challenge... it's a delight! [edit: no longer available]

And speaking of stop motion, Irish singer/songwriter Ríona Sally Hartman created a video to go along with the release of her new album Big Starving Thing.

It features her own cut paper sculptures that I find mesmerizing in their kaleidoscope-like movements, while the song Show Me is the kind that gets stuck in my mind in a good way.



Riona describes the video: The paper sculptures are of various 'creatures', some more abstract than others, and the video was made with a stop motion app on my phone. Very high tech!
