Paper Sculpture Techniques and Ideas
Your challenge is to make any sculpture using only paper, glue (or tape), and scissors. You can create a monochromatic (one color) sculpture like the one pictured above. You can also make any type of sculpture. Use the following techniques as needed as you create your Paper Sculpture.
1. Make a Cone by starting with a half circle. Bend the shape into a cone.
2. Make a Cylinder. Start with a rectangle, fold a tiny bit of the bottom, make many small cuts up to the fold. Then wrap the rectangle into a cylinder and secure with glue.
3. Make a Spiral by cutting a circular line that keeps getting smaller.
4. Make shapes using a controlled tear.
5. Make a ladder. Fold a piece of paper in half, cut the letter "L", open the folded paper, and then lift each flap of the ladder.
