Enter The Paper Attic

Benja Harney’s Paper Creations

We are very lucky to be able to bring you an incredible show currently showing in Object’s Project Space. In connection with Sydney Design Week, Benja Harney, a well known and highly respected paper artist, brings to life objects that one might find in their attic. You will find an old wooden rocking horse, much loved ice skates, a discarded umbrella, piles of dusty books and even a mouse hole in the wall, all of which is intricately made out of paper. This exhibition allows viewers to marvel at Benja’s incredible talents for all things paper and reflect on their own personal hidden treasures they might have tucked away in the attic or under the stairs.

These objects have a certain nostalgia about then in their uncanny realistic nature. It feels almost as if you have stumbled upon them in their uncanny realistic nature. It feels almost as if you have stumbled upon hidden away treasures that bring back childhood memories.
