Brave Birds: Inspiration on the Wing

 紙雕藝術的極致

 醉心於纖細如真的雙翅之中，徜徉在勇氣與希望升起的雲海翱翔。

 

 　　從羽毛、頭髮、海浪到葉片紋路，細膩的裁刻、靈動的神韻，是紙雕藝術家Maude White每幅作品皆令人目不轉睛的用心與技藝。屢獲殊榮的她，作品常於網路、雜誌與國際畫廊展出。此次的新書Brave Birds收錄65幅最新鳥類作品，每隻鳥作為靈感來源，皆與其傳遞相關的良善與力量的信息相輔，鼓勵勇氣和毅力。書中以不同的分類群組來呈現：快樂、創造力、耐心、善良、韌性、溝通、力量、意識、行動和徹底轉化的鳥類，每一件創作都經過數千次錯綜複雜的切割，賦予這些微妙和靈性的鳥類驚人的質感。對任何愛鳥者或鳥類藝術收藏家而言，Brave Birds對於希望在生命中實踐善良和同情的人來說，是一個美麗的資源與靈感。（文 / 博客來編譯）
