THE MINDFUL & TRANSFORMATIVE POWER OF SIMPLY TEARING & CUTTING PAPER

Why I love tearing paper and cutting out tiny letters from books!

I remember back in art school working on a still life drawing for a couple of hours, and then our tutor made us tear it up. I couldn’t believe it. I didn’t understand why? We did then reconstruct the bits of paper into another art piece which I loved and since then I have had a little obsession with ripping and cutting up drawings, old paper, book pages and anything else that can be ripped.
