Entering an exhibition of Li Hongbo, the Chinese paper sculpture artist, you will find yourself in front of numerous sculptures, including some copies of famous statues. But do not be fooled or put off by appearances: what you see is not marble!
After years of trial and error, the artist has refined a method of superposition of hundreds of thin sheets of paper to make flexible paper sculptures! In the video, when one of the assistants touches a statue and pulls it towards her, you will be astonished to see what the statue is actually made of and that it is really a series of thin sheets of paper!
