Cardboard Sculpture

World Fair. Corrugated Cardboard Sculpture. 2017. 

For my cardboard sculpture, I decided to do a miniature replica of real structures and buildings that were created for the 1900 World Fair.  The World Fair was held in France and the famous Eiffel Tower was built specially for the entrance to the fair grounds.   The fair also included a large ferrous wheel and statue of the world, along with many other architectural pieces.  My sculpture is made out of cardboard scraps and I cut of the top part of the cardboard in some places to leave a corrugated design.  I also used hot glue to glue the pieces of cardboard together and wire to mount the ferrous wheel on so it can spin.
