Christina Lihan, an artist who turns paper into architectural reliefs, will be at the Boynton Woman’s Club on February 27 at 7 p.m. She will be giving a demonstration of how she intricately hand cuts paper to create three-dimensional reliefs of skyscrapers, cityscapes, historic buildings, and European and American landmarks.
Formally trained as an architect, she has turned her talents from the built form to sculpting paper into architecture. She carves, cuts, scores, bends and folds watercolor paper by hand to form facades that come alive with shadows, texture, light and details.
“Although the pieces look like sculpture, they hang on the wall, framed in shadow box frames, and range from 2 inches to 6 inches deep,” explains Ms. Lihan.
