2: Paper Lights!
My family used to drive from Texas to New Mexico where we’d live for months at a time, while my father did research in Los Alamos. I remember my parents getting us up in the wee hours (2 or 3am) to begin the long trip so that we kids would sleep through a good part of it. I loved watching the lights on the side of the road as we started our journey, as I fell back to sleep to the lull of the car’s engine. Sometimes I’d wake as we drove through a big city, which was exciting, since our small town didn’t have many lights.
We spent a few Christmas seasons in New Mexico, and I fell in love with the luminaria (brown paper bags illuminated with tea lights) which were used to adorn rooftops and driveways throughout the region.
Many years later, I designed my first paper product, which I also called a luminaria. I incorporated watermarking, a hand papermaking technique which makes the paper thin in certain areas.

Another interest in paper and light was sparked during a trip to Japan in the late 1980′s, shortly after I’d moved to NYC. I stayed in a traditional Japanese Inn with lots of shoji screens, and I admired the way those paper screens filtered the light.

I returned home to NYC inspired and (long story short) found my way to Dieu Donné Papermill , where I ended up working for six years. During that time, I made a set of shoji screens (following the instructions in Jay Van Arsdale’s book, Shoji: How to Design, Build and Install Japanese Screens). The woodworking took so much longer than the papermaking, and I decided to hire experts to do the things I wasn’t an proficient at in the future. Below is a picture of another shoji prototype I made (I’ve always wondered why nobody broke the tradition of rectangular panels in shoji screens – can anyone prove me wrong?).

While working at Dieu Donné, I was approached by a publisher about writing a book about paper lamps. I’d been teaching myself how to make various lamp and lantern structures, because I realized that I needed a specialty in the paper world. I ended up writing Paper Illuminated for Storey Books a few years later (another long story made very short), and I currently teach how to make lamp and lantern workshops around the country.
One of my favorite places in the world is the Noguchi Museum in Long Island City. I used to lead bicycle trips over there when I lived in NYC, and the museum is practically across the street from Socrates Sculpture Park, another gem. Isamu Noguchi is better known for his stone sculptures, but he was a multi-talented designer and created Akari Light Sculptures. Designed by Noguchi beginning in 1951 and handmade for a half century by the original manufacturer in Gifu, Japan, the paper lanterns are a harmonious blend of Japanese handcraft and modernist form. They also collapse flat for easy transportation and storage.

There are many artists whose work features illuminated paper, and Kyoko Ibe of Japan is one of my favorite. She recently produced a performance piece, Recycling: Washi Tales, which brings to life in performance the human stories contained in a sheet of “washi” (Japanese handmade paper) as it is recycled through time.

Susan Hersey of Petaluma, CA makes beautiful illuminated sculptures utilizing paper.

And one of my favorite lamp designers has a shop in Portland, Oregon called HiiH Gallery.

3: Paper & Books
Book Arts is a growing field, and there are many innovative uses of paper in contemporary artists’ books. The following is just the tip of the iceberg and documents my own experience with various instructors over the years.
I met Ed Hutchins in the early 1990′s when I took a workshop with him at Long Island University. In one day, we created approximately 25 different book structures, all from copier-size sheets of paper. Ed used the now-defunct gocco printer and photocopier machine to ‘print’ many of his editions on single sheets of paper, and then he cut the sheets and folded them in a multitude of ways to make various book structures. I own a copy of the Mystery of the Magic Box, pictured below. The book and box are all constructed from one large single sheet of paper which was printed and then cut in a way that it folds up into a box that holds the book.
I’ve never met Keith Smith or Scott McCarney, but I admire their instructional books, as well as their artists’ books. Keith made this lovely string book, which has been inspirational in my work.
And check out Scott’s amazing alphabet book:
Alphabook 3, by Scott McCarney
I had the good fortune of assisting Susan Joy Share in a workshop she taught at The Penland School in 1996. Susan’s books are often interactive: I remember gasping when I saw two books which were revealed beneath her feet when she took a few steps; she had two accordion books strapped to her feet! The workshop was incredible. She taught collaboratively with Nancy (I’m sorry I’ve forgotten her last name) and we made books that we ‘performed’ with. Susan also introduced me to using all kinds of fasteners which can be used in artists’ book construction, like magnets and zippers.
Zip-off fence, by Susan Joy Share
I took traditional bookbinding and box making classes with Barbara Mauriello at the Center for Book Arts in New York City. Some of her books are featured in Playing With Paper.
artists’ book, by Barbara Mauriello
Hedi Kyle, who is also featured in Playing With Paper, has also taught many people how to make books, and she has developed unique book structures, including the flag book.
Flag Book, by Hedi Kyle
There are many book arts programs at colleges and universities, and there is a professional group called The College Book Art Association, which holds an annual conference. There is also a national Guild of Bookworkers, with several local chapters around the country. And there are dealers who specialize in Book Arts: it is worth taking a peek at these websites, because they carry the work of important book artists working in the field today: 23 Sandy Gallery, Vamp & Tramp Booksellers and Wessel & Lieberman. And there is even a summer camp for book and paper artists! Check out the Paper and Book Intensive, which is held in May of each year.

4 & Counting: 3D Handmade Paper
There are numerous artists creating wonders with handmade paper. I wrote another post about two-dimensional techniques recently, and here are some examples of three-dimensional paper techniques. These are featured in The Papermaker’s Studio Guide as well.
Let’s start with the least dimensional, which would be embossed sheets. Here’s an example by Margareta Mannervik. By simply laying wet sheets of handmade paper on top of an embossed surface (like a plaster mold) you can pick up fine details like this:
detail of Vitt, by Margareta Mannervik
Priscilla Robinson also does embossed works. One nice thing about embossing or casting paper: it doesn’t weigh much!
Detail of Hosta Fresca, by Priscilla Robinson
Casting is more dimensional than embossing, but is done in a similar fashion – wet sheets of paper or paper pulp are packed into or over a surface, either flat or dimensional. In this case, Roberto Mannino casts (or stretches) sheets of paper over frames with objects inside of them. He uses a high shrinkage pulp which shrinks as it dries and rubs graphite onto the dry castings to create the slick surface.
Graphite Series 2010, # 1 – 8 of 52 by Roberto Mannino
Mannino leaves the objects inside of his paper castings, while Anita Brendgens casts paper over forms and then removes the paper from them once it is dry.
Susan Warner Keene practices another form of casting, in which she joins wet sheets made from high shrinkage fibers together and allows them to air dry. The overlapping of the paper and embedded elements, such as string, create tension and interesting textures during the drying process.
Red Journey, by Susan Warner Keene
Sounding #1, by Susan Warner Keene
Draping or forming sheets over armatures is another three dimensional technique. Tia Kramer is a jeweler who does this on a minute scale, casting pigmented abaca onto her silver armatures, creating necklaces, bracelets, earrings and more.
Tilt series necklace, by Tia Kramer
For many years I produced lamps with paper shades. This is a commissioned watermarked lampshade from years ago.
Watermarked Lamp, by Helen Hiebert
One last type of three-dimensional work that I’d like to mention is the work of Peter Gentenaar. After admiring and even writing about his work for many years, I had the pleasure of meeting Peter when we were both in Korea in the fall of 2011. He creates these amazing sculptures in a huge vacuum table, filling the table with pulp and water, embedding flat reed armatures in the solution and then draining the water, leaving the armature and pulp in the table. He then carefully lifts everything up out of the table for drying. As the paper dries and reacts to the embedded reed armature, the sculpture emerges as the paper torques, creating amazing forms.
Eternal Flame, by Peter Gentenaar
Wearable sculpture by Peter Gentenaar
That is my survey of three-dimensional paper art. I’m sure there are many other techniques, and I’d love to hear about them.
I write a column for Hand Papermaking Magazine called Unique Techniques, in which I profile paper artists who are practicing unusual and innovative techniques with the medium. Do you have a unique technique? If so, please share it with me by emailing or leaving me a comment below.

5: The End of the World: Flying Paper
Hello?
Is anybody here?
I don’t know if I’m the only one left…
I’m thinking about what I’d need at the end of the world. Oh… is it too late?
I think I need a getaway vehicle – a way to get off of the earth! And since I’m light as a feather now, I’ll try this first:
Folding Triplet Paper Airplane
I like this paper airplane, because I haven’t seen it before. And it is pretty simple to fold.
Or maybe a kite would be better? I can catch the wind and float around. Check out this amazing film trailer that I just discovered, called … Flying Paper. The film, by Nitin Sawhney, is an uplifting story of Palestinian youth in Gaza on a quest to shater the Guinness World Record for the most kites ever flown. These children are definitely flying high, in more ways than one!
Hey, guess what? There is a kite project in Playing With Paper. Scott Skinner is an amazing kite maker (and former air force pilot instructor) who shares how to make this traditional Sode Kite. Scott is also the president of The Drachen Foundation. Believe it or not, there is a foundation dedicated to all things kite!
Sode Kite, by Scott Skinner
That gorgeous itajame paper is hand dyed by Susan Kristoferson.
Here’s one more kite project that Scott Skinner worked on, in collaboration with Hand Papermaking Magazine and artist Lesley Dill:
Divide Light, by Lesley Dill
Read more about that project here.
And since I’m nothing but dust now, I think I’ll make a wish.
Have you seen Flying Wish Paper? It is a Portland, Oregon original. You write a wish on a piece of paper (it looks like a square of colored tissue paper, but maybe there is some other secret ingredient… ).
Then you light it with a match and watch it fly. We just tried it here at home:
Where there is an end, there is also a beginning! Make a wish …
What is your wish? Any wish? In all seriousness, I’m working on a new installation called The Wish, and I’m collecting wishes. Please share it by e-mailing or leaving me a comment below. ______________________________________________________________________

7: Inflatable Paper
Remember the origami balloons, or water bombs, we learned to make in elementary school? I taught my after school paper club kids to make them today, and the high energy group had fun tossing and kicking them around the room like hacky sacks. But here’s another idea – use them as holiday light covers.
origami paper balloon light covers, by JuuniOrigamiWhen I was in Japan in the late 80′s, I picked up a few of these inflatable paper balls. They come packaged flat, and with just a breath of air they inflate.
I made a large version (5′ in diameter) of this ball out of tracing paper in 2006. The Text Ball has part of a poem by Ezra Pound printed on it using rubber stamps: “The Book Should be a Ball of Light in One’s Hand”.
Text Ball, by Helen HiebertInstructions for how to make an inflatable ball that is one foot in diameter are included in my new book, Playing With Paper. Here’s a picture from the book, featuring van dyke brown prints by Alyssa Salomon on handmade abaca paper that I made.
inflatable paper ball by Alyssa Salamon & Helen HiebertAnother project featured in the book is how to make a hot air balloon that you can launch with heat from a heat gun, hair dryer or propane stove into the sky. I read an article by Brian Queen in Hand Papermaking Magazine in the summer of 2006, just prior to teaching a class at The Penland School. I decided to have my class make a collaborative hot air balloon. We constructed one from tissue paper which was about seven feet tall. Here’s my class trying to launch the balloon in front of the breakfast crowd near The Pines. That attempt failed (it was too warm outside), but it still looked pretty good.
We tried the launch again a few mornings later. I don’t think any of us expected it to work, but we hooted and hollered as that balloon soared up into the sky and over the photo studio and landed, sigh, high up in a tree.
This is a great website which enables you to plot out how to construct various hot air balloon shapes. Be forewarned, the website is in Spanish, but if you know how tall you want your balloon to be, how many gores (sections) it should have, and how much overlap you want between the gores, it will make the computations so that you can create a gore pattern.
Check out this inflatable sofa made from recycled paper, by Malafor in Poland.

8. Pleat Pleat
We’ve all seen fancy ways to pleat and tuck fabric in the fashion world. Guess what? There are a variety of ways in which artists have adapted these techniques in paper. In Playing With Paper, I feature a couple of artists who fold paper in unique ways.
Artist Chris Palmer is author of the book Shadowfolds. This book focuses on folding fabric, but Chris has done many of these folds in paper. Samples of his work appear in two of my books, Paper Illuminated and Playing With Paper. Watch this deployable table flower unfold.
Deployable Table Flower 10-Fold from Chris K. Palmer on Vimeo.
Folded kite paper, by Chris K. PalmerPaul Jackson lives in Israel and has been writing about and working with paper for over 20 years. He has written 25 publications on origami, paper folding, pop-ups and more. One of my favorites is this book, Folding Techniques for Designers. The book comes with a CD with patterns you can print out. The print-outs are color coded, so that you can see which folds are mountains and which are valleys. It makes folding these complex structures somewhat manageable (for people like me who are fold-challenged).
Folding Techniques for Designers, by Paul JacksonPaul is the teacher or inspirer of many well-known paper folders today, and the following pieces of his are folded from single uncut sheets of paper.
Folded paper sculptures. by Paul JacksonSynchronicity abounds. When I was just about to start writing Playing With Paper, I was in Minneapolis teaching a workshop and staying with my friend and colleague Amanda Degener. (An aside, Amanda and her business partner Bridget O’Malley run Cave Paper in Minneapolis and sell their sturdy handmade papers through retail shops around the country). Amanda told me about Eric Gjerde (who had been her housemate a few years back) and showed me his book. Origami Tesselations. Well, you can guess the rest of the story (yes, his work is featured in the book).
Here are a few examples of Eric’s work:
Waterbomb 2, by Eric Gjerde
Square Weave, by Eric Gjerde
Dragon Helix, by Eric GjerdeEric has a fabulous blog and often shares his patterns for tesselations he has created.

9: Curved Paper
Paper is flat, right? I often think about the similarities of when people thought that the world was flat; but with paper it is obvious, because you can hold it and fold it. I find the ways that artists have figured out how to make curves in paper astounding. And not when you just twist it into a loop, like a mobius strip, but when it is scored on a curve, you can actually coax paper to fold in ways it otherwise wouldn’t.
Scored concentric circles, from Playing With PaperEric Demaine and Martin Demaine are at MIT and wrote an interesting paper (with pictures) about the surprisingly old history of what they call curved-crease sculpture, going back to the 1920s at the Bauhaus.
They create paper sculptures and describe how the “paper folds itself into a natural equilibrium form depending on its creases. These equilibria are poorly understood, especially for curved creases. We are exploring what shapes are possible in this genre of self-folding origami, with applications to deployable structures, manufacturing, and self-assembly. This transformation of flat paper into swirling surfaces creates sculpture that feels alive”.
Fuller Craft Series, 2012
Pushing Curves to the Limit seriesRichard Sweeney is another big name in this type of work. His practice combines the disciplines of design, photography, craft and sculpture, resulting in a varied output of work including graphic design and public sculpture commissions. Combining hand-craft with computer aided design and CNC manufacturing techniques, Richard seeks to maintain an experimental, hand-on approach, utilising the unique properties of often mundane materials to discover unique sculptural forms.
Icosahedron II 2006, by Richard Sweeney
Birthday gift- Commission for Queen Rania of Jordan, by Richard SweeneyA confession: when I start writing a post, I have a plan in mind. But then I start researching various aspects of the subject and inevitably come up with even more interesting artists to feature! Like Polly Verity, whom I’d never heard of. This picture is just the tip of the ice berg, too. Click into her website and you’ll find many more amazing curved paper folds!

11: Paper + Hope
In light of the senseless shootings this week, in Oregon, Connecticut, and no doubt other places around the world, I thought I’d type about a few projects that artists working with paper are doing, which give me hope!
At a papermaking conference about six years ago, I listened to the moving story of Drew Cameron, who spoke eloquently about his experience in the US military from 2000-2006. Drew is a co-founder of the Combat Paper Project, which utilizes art making workshops to assist veterans in reconciling and sharing their personal experiences as well as broadening the traditional narrative surrounding service and the military culture.
From uniform to pulp, Battlefield to workshop, Warrior to artistThrough papermaking workshops veterans use their uniforms worn in combat to create cathartic works of art. The uniforms are cut up, beaten into a pulp and formed into sheets of paper. Veterans use the transformative process of papermaking to reclaim their uniform as art and begin to embrace their experiences in the military.
Broken Toy SoldiersCombat Paper was featured on PBS about a year ago.
The Peace Paper Project, run by Drew Matott and Margaret Mahan works to empower healing arts communities by introducing collaborative art processes that foster positive forward thinking, enhanced communication, and peaceful reconciliation. Through hand papermaking, writing, book and printmaking activities, they work together to transform significant articles of clothing into works of art that broadcast personal stories, mutual understanding and healing.
Damaged Skyline by Drew Matott, 18×12, monoprint on handmade paper, 2011, Printed in response to London Riots of Summer 2011.I had the pleasure of meeting Margaret Mahan in October. She’s a feisty young woman standing barely five feet tall and is incredibly committed to her work. She leads women in Panty Pulping workshops, where thoughts run deep.
Margaret Mahan pulping panties“When I first cut my underwear into bits, it was my way of gaining control, of creating, and of using my hands to share my voice. All I could think about for weeks was my friends who were violated, of their faces and the faces of victims I may never know. I felt pushed by this collective energy to create paper, and the shocking choice of panties as my fiber felt the most fitting. I made strong, elegant sheets of paper to represent the strong, elegant women I am blessed to know. Peace Paper continues this ritual as a way of broadcasting the powerful voices of all women”.
When I worked at Oblation Papers in Press in the late 1990′s in Portland, I met Geraldine Foote, who came in to have her Peace Leaves printed on a variety of papers. Drawing upon what nature teaches, the poems she prints are meant to inspire, remind us of our shared humanity, and to help us to live lovingly in a changing world.
Three Slow Symphonies, by Geraldine FooteI was deeply saddened to hear that one of the victims in the Clackamas mall shooting in Oregon this week was a participant in my Mother Tree Project (I’m not going to go into detail about the project here, but please feel free to click on the link or watch this short video documentary about the project).
Mother Tree at The Portland BuildingAlthough I did not meet Cindy or know her (she crocheted a root for Mother Tree with a group of women), her root now transcends our world here on earth and she remains connected. When I think about all of the crocheted strands that form the roots of Mother Tree, and all of the stories buried in them, I feel that we (the living, the dead, the young, the old, the mothers, the fathers, the daughters, the sons) are all bonded together.
Ears, Nose, Toes, by Geraldine FooteI know there are many other moving paper projects out there. Do you have one to share? If so, please leave me a comment below.
