About seven years ago, illustrator Kelly Pousette started cutting out elements of her illustrations and propping them up on her desk. She'd photograph them with mood lighting, creating tiny worlds at different times of day, populated with woodland creatures and fairy tale trees. She says, "I felt I could make them come alive."
And she did. Social media responded, and her newly formed paper cut art practice flourished. After some time, Pousette started creating 3D shadow boxes that she could light and photograph, making the resulting photos the final iteration of her art. She now works with a wide variety of media and paper types. Nothing is off-limits, as long as it helps to create a scene she's already visualized. But always, cutting and posing paper is central to her work.

No one could be afraid in the Woods while walking with a pony-sized dog!😂 The Illustrations are so cute and it's great how they come alive as a cut-out!
Just so fulfilling. Made my day ❤

Your work is very creative and artistic as well. 👍
So much to love but those little bluebirds in the nest in the tree!
As a paper art lover, I mainly do origami. Paper cutting (kirigami) has always been an area I want to explore, hopefully I will be able to give it a try in the future !

Dude, I don't usually comment, but let's just say I had to like and comment this video!
Truly inspirational Art
wow, very cool !
What you create is very poetic. I was just wondering if, for pollution reasons, the hot glue couldn't be replaced with another, less impactful material. The paper, which is 100% recyclable, combined with hot glue, thus becomes non-recyclable. Thank you!
Beautiful
Right said: beautiful 👍👍👍🤒
