" ... What I find most interesting about working with cardboard are the limitations. With wood, clay or stone, you can create virtually any shape. But with the way that I choose to work with cardboard, the range is severely limited. There are two important rules that I put on myself: I don’t crush or mash the cardboard, but instead I preserve the layers and the corrugation. And I don't bend the cardboard unnaturally. That means that the cardboard can only be curved one direction, parallel to the corrugations. With these rules, spherical shapes are therefore impossible. So using cardboard to make a human face, which is full of rounded shapes, requires completely different thinking than traditional mediums. It’s about creating an illusion of roundness, about breaking complex shapes down into simpler geometries. It’s figuring out how two planes of cardboard will intersect to form a line, about what shadows will be created by different angles. But this is what I find so compelling about using this material. These limitations don’t inhibit my creativity; they are the source of it. By making it necessary to abstract or simplify a shape, like a human face, I force myself to really understand the components of an expression or gesture. ... "
