Ingrid Siliakus
Ingrid Siliakus is an artist who was borned in 1955 from Armsterdam, Nertherlands. She started paper craft, making architecture especially, after seeing art work by Masahiro Chatani. She have studied and tried multiple time to develop her style through cutting and folding papers. She liked architecture designed by Berlage and Gaudi.
To design a pattern from scratch, Ingrid Siliakus needed skills of an architect to create a two-dimensional design, which, with the patience and precision of a surgeon, becomes an ingenious three-dimensional wonder of paper. It was difficult for her at first but she tried hard to make perfect.
She have exprienced many failure that gave her depression; however, she tried many times until she gets the work that she wanted. Normally, she creates more than 30 ingrid and sketches how she can develope the architecture only using a piece of paper.
Since she experience making architecture with a piece of paper, she is developing her works and could gained a chance to exhibit her works around the world.
"Working with paper forces me to be humble, since this medium has a character of its own that asks for cooperation. It is a challenge to find this cooperation with each separate paper brand I work with."
"I experience an ultimate satisfaction at the critic moment when the paper, with a silenced sigh, surrenders and becomes a blade-sharp crease." - Ingrid Siliakus
