Li Hongbo's Paper Sculptures
Ойын-сауық
Taken at Artstage 2014, Singapore
Chinese Artist Li Hongbo's paper sculptures look ordinary at first glance, but what seems to be a simple bust turns out to be thin sheets of paper glued together. When pulled, they seem to stretch infinitely. Each sculpture requires a painstaking amount of work and takes 4 to 5 months to make.

Looks like a glitch in the Matrix
This is oddly satisfying
Why the long face?

i bet it would be weird to punch it and not break your hand

It would probably still break your hand because they are dense layers of wood. When it's just a single sheet paper, it is fragile because of the thinness.

looks like it's glitching reality itself! OMG!
The person's face handling the art is like, "ARE YOU NOT ENTERTAINED??"
This is on every single satisfying video
Stunning!! Really wanna see them!!
This is absolutely amazing. Yet, it's a little freaky at the same time. This fabulous work and I hope they can create something on a much larger scale.

Li Hongbo's Art Is Incredible! Great Job! Enticing the onlooker with more than visual into his Morphing Masterpieces!! Xiexie! :-)
OMG! I can't even begin to think how these are made.
MIND BLOWN

Truly amazing
AWESOME! Would LOVE to have several of these around the house. : )

I'm a sculptor. I'll make you one for $1,000. His are on average $20,000. He doesn't sculpt them himself anyway.

Would be great to have them, but even $1,000 apiece is still not an amount I will spend on art. It is definitely not that they are not worth that kind of money, but I just don't have a house yet that would accommodate them like they should be. I have a home designed that I am to build and that is within a few year's plan, but for now I just don't have the right place to put them. For the place I live now I would never spend that much on artwork or furniture. It's gotta have just the right place to be.

Audrey Kwok Perhaps I should have said he doesn't sculpt it ALL himself. He has assistants that do a lot of the work. Thanks.

Al Scarbrough Haha I understand. I don't have that kind of money either. If I did I would sculpt it for myself. Its something I've been wanting to do for a while. Good luck on building your new home.
Would be terrified being the person handling such a cool piece of art genuinely haha
This is Vinsane and Vbeautiful at the same time. Luv sophisticated layering.

I was SO confused until she reassembled it, I thought it was some kind of paper-water-soap mixture that she was stretching? Then when she put it back.. hollyyy cow
Holy Fre@#$ing moly! that is cool
They should have the sculpture below table level, then as it's pulled apart, the base is brought up to table level. Then when it's returned to its compressed original state, . . . it magically appears as a sculpture. Freaky ! Just like this website.
So many trees....

Yes, just like my willie when I'm pissed
How far do you think one of these would stretch out? TBH I think it would be about 1 km if you stretched it out that much until its flat.
Why did I go there with a cigarette, the art community will never forgive me ...
dose any one know where 2 buy this??
hiii ... wanna know in details that how to make it
O my good
How could so many paper stick together?
How does that work?
Por que no lo filmó desde un principio? ???
The best part is that probably only costed less than a 100$ to make and it's probably worth a million.
crazy
I always thought that was foam lol. 😂😂
Wonder how, exactly, the paper is connected.

Is there a problem with a female bust? Females tend to have much softer looking faces than men, so a female bust seems logical.

+שרית גר i'm an outspoken feminist as well, but i think you're being overly touchy here. The artist has a variety of works and they are both male and female. In fact, within this video itself there is a male bust right next to the female one that the gallery staff is doing the demonstration with. There's a distinction between standing up for female equality and feeling victimized about perfectly normal things.
The sound effects from one of the other works in the room is really obnoxious. Why not turn down the volume on that thing, and maybe move it to a location where you can't hear it if you're near other pieces of work.
Insider brought me here. Anyone else?
