Destiny Sculpture

These Shadowboxes are inspired by Japanese Bunraku shadow theatre, employing the use of paper and shadows to depict scenes, characters and narratives. By backlighting the papercut designs, the boxes become ambient story devices, inspiring the viewer to question the origin and outcome of the depicted scene. The work is inspired by wanderings through gardens and forests as a child fantasising about adventures and dreamworlds; as such I aim to bring that feeling of 'stumbling upon something' to the viewer and escaping into another reality. The boxes are wooden, free standing, self-contained units, lit internally by a single, warm white LED bulb, with a power flex out the back. The front is finished with a mountboard frame and a sheet of high quality 250micron acetate protects the work from dust and fingers. The layers, 15 in this design are cut from 160-200gsm cream paper which when layered creates beautiful warm tones.
