Browsing galleries and websites has brought me to several more highly original and interesting artists, including a number from Japan. Japanese artist Kiyomi Iwata,
whose website is here, who lives and works in the US, creates sculptural forms from silk and metal, but the effect is semi-translucent and has the whisky, papery quality which I am searching fro in designing my final project piece based around deconstructing and re-generation from paper. Her work is quite varied, and includes the use of strong colours. Images from her website, link above.
