Did you ever cut colored construction paper into strips and loop them together to create a paper chain? Well, after viewing the paper sculptures of artist Jen Stark you'll never look at construction paper the same way again. Jen was born in 1983 and has been exhibiting since 2005 when she earned an MFA from the Maryland Institute College of Art, and her talents also include painting and animation. Jen layers and sculpts paper into vibrant works that burst with the exuberance of childhood, yet are crafted with the deft hand of a sophisticated artist.
