Amazing Hyper-Realistic Chairs Made Out of Paper

Los Angeles-based artist Vincent Tomczyk creates amazingly detailed replicas of iconic chairs fabricated entirely from paper. Each object is meticulously hand-crafted and all the colors and woodgrain textures are hand-painted without the use of digital printing. "I am interested in how personal chairs can become over time - almost taking on the characteristics of their owners." Vincent says, "Chairs provide a sense of dignity - from hand carved stools in Africa, to thrones in Europe. Conversely, chairs are ubiquitously a part of our public and social lives, bringing humanity together in small groups or en masse."

  1. Son fauteuil bergère c'est du papier? L'illusion est saisissante. Je n'ose imaginer le temps rien que sur le travail en osier de la chaise.

    Certaines des coloris sont bluffants...

    Réussi le travail sur papier c'est vraiment poétique.
