Durable Paper Sculpture

Since 1995 Graham Hay has been creating unique paper sculptures, some up to 3 tonne, others up to 2.5m high.

Over time he developed unique techniques that converted paper into an "artificial hardwood", without the use of water or glues.

This website was first created to share information on paper clay, as it was not widely available.  This was before textbooks and when there were only a few scattered journal articles.  It grew into the documentation of art projects and listing of upcoming learning opportunities.   It is a symbolic “thank you” to the many thousands who participated in events I led, who shared so generously their techniques and personal stories.  This enriched both myself and ultimately my future students.  Ultimately it is a gift to the next generation of potters, artists and art students.  I hope it inspires you, informs you and provides an example of the sort of creative journey you have or are about to begin. Enjoy your travels!  Cheers! Graham
