Artisan at work: Sculpting paper diorama

Paper sculptor Nicola Dobrowolski will be working live in Sala Messina, showcasing the process of building a paper diorama displayed within a glass cloche. Nicola will create two scenes: one man-made and the other natural. The first will be a mini Venice, an homage to the local architecture, including gondoliers and human narrative. The second will be an ode to the Great British meadow beloved by the artisan. With this diorama, Nicola will show how to capture flora in paper, creating a narrative with wild animals and insects.
