A Cardboard Puzzle

Some images from my cardboard project

The basic idea laid out

 

The image slowly builds up

The project was born as an appropriation on the mosaic tradition, but an interest in the language of packaging soon took overhand.

The Art of Telling a Tale

“But, even so, I’ll make an effort to tell a story, and if I manage to tell it and my fear doesn’t stop me, it’s the best of all stories; and your grace should pay careful attention, because here I go. ‘once upon a time, and may good come to all and evil to him who seeks it . . .’ And, Senor, your grace should notice that the beginnings the ancients gave to their tales didn’t come out of nowhere; this was a maxim of the Roman Cato Nonsensor, and it says: ‘Evil to him who seeks it,’ which fits here like the ring on your finger and means that your grace should stay put and not go looking for evil anywhere, and we should take another route, nobody’s forcing us to continue on this one with so many frightening things to scare us.”

“You go on with your story, Sancho,” said Don Quixote, “and leave the route we shall follow to me.”
