Jennifer Collier of Unit Twelve uses found and recycled papers--patterns, maps, newspapers--to create everyday objects like shoes and cameras. Rather than choosing an item to sculpt then scrounging up the paper for it, Collier works the other way around: "I tend to find items then investigate a way in which they can be reused and transformed." The results are interesting and a bit whimsical. You can check out more of her work on Laughing Squid, or see it at the Origin Contemporary Craft Fair Sep 22-28. Link
