Petra Storrs - Optical Opulence

I somehow stumbled across Petra Storrs' sculptural work with paper and knew it was too good to not to share! Her ability to metamorphosize paper into elaborate props and editorial ready attire is truly nuts. The garments entitled Optical Opulence were featured in Sublime magazine. The multitude of patterned paper types and theatrical volume reminds me of the characters in Lewis Carroll's Through the Looking Glass which draws on the imagery of chess, how very fitting.
