My work was unknowingly featured in an Indian Magazine:
...thanks to Jeff Rutzky for the finding the image
Translation of the page:
"ART OF COLOURS
Sun rising from the veils of clouds... Breeze from the sea tickling our cheeks... Sweet sound of the nightingale form the tree...
These are the events that can inspire an idea into any artist. But Jen Stark is inspired from something completely different and cutting the papers this way. Her sister is a doctor. She used to watch the post-mortem of the corpses by her sister in the hospital. It's then the idea of such paper cutting struck her. Since then, she started cutting paper this way. The knife and the paper bowed in front of the art-filled heart of hers. Now she's giving shows of her work in various countries worldwide!"
