Paper Sculptures and One-Sheet-Wonders

Danish artist Peter Callesen is making sculptures out of paper... On his site (www.petercallesen.com) you can marvel at the intricate one-sheet cut-outs, as well as full-scale paper "mirages".
Callesen´s work has always contained references to the romantic notion of the unattainable and the sublime. (click on any image to enlarge)
