okay, we have a problem. we know we saw the amazing paper cityscapes of Nicholas Kolya on someone's blog, but now we can't remember whose (that'll teach us not to properly label things in our reader). does this look familiar to anyone? we will happily append this post if anyone can tell us where we saw it this morning.

anyway, back to Nicholas:

Kolya's newest projects involve painstakingly hand-sliced sheets of A3 paper and various dolla-dolla billz from around the world. His A3 Cities series portrays the feel of various cities in simple profile form with no color or third dimension. The International Currency project is a reflection upon the circulation of money and asks the various bills where they've been. You can actually snag Kolya's A3 pieces on Etsy for $40 a piece.

You may have seen this on the Rag & Bone bindery blog www.ragandbone.com. I, too, think this is wonderful and thought about posting about it myself.
