The Makerie studio (Julie Wilkinson and Joyanne Horscroft) have made a number of an elegant, intricate paper sculptures.
The White Omar is a piece that explores the structure and form of patterns and shapes previously developed for an existing piece, The Great Omar, as a way of stripping back colour to highlight contours and light play across the surfaces. Currently being developed as a centre piece for a London boutique display.

Atlas: Life-size reproduction of a Whet Owl, created using papers printed with antique world atlases, provided by Carteria Tassotti Milano. The owl is finished using gold plated sheeting and black Swarowski crystals, with a base made from solid Italian oak.
The Great Omar Peacock: Life size reproduction of a peacock inspired by the cover of The Great Omar, a collection of Persian poems known as the most precious volume ever bound. The sculpture was produced for London paper merchants Shepherds Bookbinders using papers from their range, and is currently displayed in their Holborn store.
