many thanks for featuring my work on your blog – one important correction though, the paper is NOT stretched over thin pieces of balsa wood, it is just cut paper. The only balsa used is in the truss-like elements of the work, it is not used as an underlying structure.
Thanks for the correction Jane – I’m not sure now where I read that it was stretched over the balsa wood, but I know that I read it in my research – so glad you saw the post and set the record straight!
Your work is amazing – can’t wait to see where you take it next.
