Paper has been recognized as materials and products that can be easily found in everyday of people’s lives and at the same time, it is regarded as a play item or an art. A paper, unlike with other materials, can be easily handled because of their light weight, easy modifications and their availabilities. These advantages of paper brought heavy usage of paper in many quarters of art industries. Also, paper is regarded as a medium of art expression with its own way of modeling shape, therefore, it displays its values in aesthetics.
This research concerns with a practice use of paper as a materials. Moreover, it concerns with many different way of modeling expression and usage of variety of materials in making accessories using paper cutting.
Cutting a paper focuses on external structure of an object rather than focusing on internal structure of an object and this observation of external line can bring new cognition and sensitivity on angles. Also, cut out paper is flat but if that paper is bent, fold, and overlap, it becomes an object that is 3D shape. Moreover, association of images can be achieved which will results in granting a new meaning and foundation of imaginations. In other words, paper cutting is useful in understanding structures, spaces and developing imagination because of its capabilities of representing both plane structures and 3D structures.
Therefore, this research will mention characteristics, methods of representation and shaping. Also, it would look for the methods of making and modeling accessories using paper cutting method.
The method of representing model of accessories is, firstly, use shadows to remove concrete shape to reduce superfluous which are produced when cutting out papers. This can be results in simplification of new images. A second procedure is to make 3D shape structures using materials from simplification procedures. Last procedure involves using papers and stones on metals to represent a warm textures from papers and cold textures from metal. This can results in contrast in textures and colors which metal only can not represent.
Under this research, many different way of representing various kinds of colors, textures, and patterns of accessories will be researched using structures and characteristics of paper cutting.
