Papier-Mâché Sculptures Act as Elegant Lamps

Artist team Sophie Mouton-Perrat and Frédéric Guibrunet have each worked with paper for over a decade, but in different ways. When they first met in 2007, they decided to combine their skills in paper making together to create ethereal paper sculptures that light up like lamps. Mouton-Perrat attended art school where she learned about paper and how to create papier-mâché. Guibrunet graduated with a degree in chemistry and, in contrast, is self-taught in paper-making. Just a year after they met, they were creating unique light sculptures, while Guibrunet developed the lower parts, Mouton-Perrat shaped the top, figurative parts. How amazing would it be to see these in person?
