Papercraft: Kenosis


"Kenosis" by New York-based artist Shanti Grumbine

This project is a series of visually complex newspaper cuts that alter printed media and current events through intricate hand-carvings. Her designs are inspired by stained glass windows, illuminated manuscripts, and other ancient art forms.
"In my project Kenosis, I utilize the erasure and excision of the New York Times Newspaper to elicit a sacred experience of the everyday. By physically removing content, I make space for what has been censored in media as well as what is lost in the translation of experience into words."
