bicycle (2002)

Reading time:

I call it my own paper casting method.

I gathered all different parts to use as casting materials; E.g a hula hoop was used for the wheels. I added tiny pieces of torn paper until it reached a certain thickness, from which the hoop could be pulled out and the paper skin completed as a super light vehicle. The newspaper mash became abstract material, and the bicycle seemed to promise a kind of elevation, a flight as much as a ride.
