Cut Stories Statement My work tells stories. I invent situations, cities and worlds to be explored to make sense of our own. These compositions include memories, associations of words, ideas, observations and thoughts that unfold in improbable juxtapositions. I invite the viewer to make their own stories. My creative inspiration comes from everything I see and everything I read. For each theme, one story leads to the next, and the creation process weaves different layers of our relations to the universe. In papercutting as in life everything is connected.
