About the Item

"Nesting Vessel No. 1" is an abstract paper sculpture by Bianca Severijns. Severijns paints and hand-tears the paper to create her unique and one of a kind works. Dutch artist Bianca Severijns (b.1964) creates her multifaceted, striking artworks by continuously exploring the paper medium. Rooted in a multicultural background, her art explores themes of displacement, identity, and migration that stem from personal narratives, as well as nature’s cycles. With the hope of starting anew, Severijns' art invites reflection on our shared world. Her self-developed manipulating paper techniques are based on layering, merging, and weaving hundreds of small, hand-torn paper pieces into sculptural tapestries, murals, reliefs, and three-dimensional objects. The repetitive act of tearing paper creates a rugged, rough finish on each piece, emulating life itself with all its beauty and harshness, representing life’s imperfections.
