Paper has a cultural weight. It carries civilization. / Xu Bing
In contemporary jewellery, paper has gradually been incorporated through techniques such as lamination and layering, structural folding, cutting and piercing, assemblage, papier mâché modelling, surface application, stitching and textile techniques, transfer and printing, compression and pressing, and erosion or controlled burning, giving rise to typologies and approaches such as origami, urushi on paper, papier mâché, collage, laminated paper jewellery, stitched jewellery, printed jewellery, openwork structures and eroded or burnt pieces, and other forms still waiting to unfold.
