Charles Young's Expanding Miniature Paper Architecture City
Artist Charles Young continues to develop his extensive collection of miniature paper buildings, drawing inspiration from architectural styles and color theory. Since 2020, he has created hundreds of structures based on Sanzo Wada's color combination guide, completing 258 from the first volume with 90 remaining. In June, he will exhibit 120 three-color paper sculptures at Galerie Handwerk in Munich. Young also produces works from wood and woven cane, with some currently displayed at Kirkcudbright Galleries and MacLaurin Gallery in Scotland.
