Precision: The Art of Cutting engages with the process of paper cutting as a medium, to transcend the folk tradition and aesthetically shift the practice into the realm of contemporary art.
At a time when climate change and the environment are central, this approach to a traditional, recyclable and renewable art medium is in itself a political statement.
For some artists, ecology and sustainability inform their work, for others it is secondary to an often cutting, critical engagement with the medium or other sociopolitical issues.
Artworks will include paper, photographs, installations and three-dimensional wall sculptures.
