Richard Sweeney

Richard studied at Batley School of Art and Design, which led him to the study of three dimensional design at the Manchester Metropolitan University. There he concentrated on the hands-on manipulation of paper to create design models, which ultimately developed into sculptural pieces.

These definitely inspire me in terms of setting up an exhibition for Fedrigoni. They're quite interactive pieces in which you could walk around and really appreciate the paper crafting. It could be interesting to have a range of sculpture pieces like this using different weighted/coloured stocks.
