The clever artists behind these amazing white sculptures are Allen & Patty Eckman. The couple met each other at Art Center College，and in 1988, they discovered paper pulp sculpture and thus set out on a whole new career path. The unique sculpture is quite different from papier-mache. The Eckmans first mix an acid free paper pulp in the studio hydro-pulper from two raw stocks, cotton and abica. Then cast paper pulp into clay molds, remove the water from the paper pulp by vacuum pressure, and finally take out of the sculptures from the molds and add details. The finished product is white and light weight. See the follow works from the Eckmans, maybe you can have a try as well.
