Grace's Garden (2011) by Kelly O'Brien, paper installationPaper sculpture, dance, and dresses. These are the hallmarks of Germany-based artist Kelly O’Brien’s work. A former ballet dancer and now mixed media artist, O’Brien feels most alive when filling spaces with paper-based installations that suggest a sense of movement and grace.
The materials and art of the book are O'Brien's medium. Kelly started as a book artist, with an interest in exploring the sculptural possibilities of the book.
You can find Kelly's work at these upcoming shows and exhibitions, and on her blog, Designing a Life. Stay updated on her latest work through Facebook and Twitter.
