Paperworld

Contemporary Belgian paper artist Guy Leclef transforms recycled paper and cardboard into visceral works of beauty and subtlety. He uses paper as if it were paint, applying thin strips of pasted and moulded material to his canvas. He calls himself a poetic recycler, and his playfulness and virtuosity align in works that explore meaning through texture and pattern. His rich and varied oeuvre is represented by galleries worldwide.
