This paper cut piece is by Eiko Ojala. I like how the white acts as the main part which makes the colours really stand out from the paper. The process of cut paper means that the lines are satisfyingly crisp. The composition of the piece is interesting because the line of sight is drawn to the middle because thats where all the colour is but then you are led up and down by the smaller details of the birds and the house. I think this piece really uses its negative space as more mountains have been created using the white base paper and over laying the coloured mountains. I like this way of thinking; getting more detail in without adding too much. Simplicity is the way forward.
