Foliage and Wild Creatures Spring to Life in Clare Celeste’s Paper Installations

Practically glowing in contrast to their dark backgrounds, Clare Celeste’s large-scale installations of foliage and flowers spring vibrantly to life. Made from layers of paper cutouts, myriad leaves and blooms invite viewers to immerse themselves in a jungle-like atmosphere.

Most recently, Celeste completed compositions for Riem Arcaden Munich, Cartier, and the American Museum of Natural History. Find more on the artist’s Instagram.
