Video: Eric Standley's incredible laser cut paper sculptures


Eric Standley, the artist known for his insanely intricate laser-cut paper sculptures, explains his breathtaking work.

His vector drawings were initially inspired by the geometry in Gothic and Islamic architectural ornamentation. The pieces are painstakingly assembled from laser-cut paper layered to create elaborate three-dimensional works of art. Often these works are created using well over 100 layers of paper and can take months of planning and drawing.
