New Underwater Reefs and Landscapes Made of Paper by Amy Eisenfeld Genser
Connecticut-based artist Amy Eisenfeld Genser ( previously ) recently completed a new series of coral reefs that she painstakingly recreates using rolled bits of paper and acrylic paint. Ahead of her upcoming exhibition at the Architectural Digest Home Show , Genser sat down with All Things Paper for a brief interview. An excerpt on her process: These days I usually work with Thai Unryu [mulberry paper], but I have hundreds of papers in my studio from all around the world. I treat the paper almost as a pigment, layering colors one on top of the other to create different colors. My pieces are about a foot wide.

Mechanical Sculptures Built from Discarded Objects by Andrea Petrachi
Milan-based Artist Andrea Petrachi creates bizarre characters and insects using reclaimed objects such as old cameras, calculators, pliers, knives, and even electric razors. Despite their sleek design, the characters are quite whimsical, often taking the persona of faces and heads removed from dolls and other children’s toys. Petrachi says his work is generally a symbol of our cultures out-of-control consumerism. See much more in his portfolio . (via daily art fixx ) <p style="text-align:right;color:#A8A8A8"></p>
