MarcPaperScissor is a visual, musical, and literary renaissance man. His work is the product of the thoughts, meditations, conversations, and questions he poses for himself and humanity, about life and society. His unique style of cut paper is colorfully moving and exciting, and adds current commentary to our society and the questions which have been posed by man since existence.

To create his work he only uses a regular scissor (no-exacto knives), a black sharpie, a glue stick, and different colored paper. He does not draw anything out before hand. His artistic improvisation for composition and color is an artistic complement to the deep questions and messages experienced within each piece. His current body of work entitled “Mental Space” is a journey through the mindscape of space and time, encompassing societal issues, and posing worldly questions about life and our place within the universe and beyond.

About The Artist:

Marc Daniel Paper Scissor Hands the 3rd was born on January 24, 1986. He grew up in South Florida and attended the University of Central Florida and Florida Atlantic University studying the art of communication and psychology which has influenced both the creation of his art and the manner in which he presents it.

Creativity was instilled in him as a young child and there was always art, music, and theater surrounding him. As a member of the National Forensic and Debate team, he performed as an actor and a public speaker in national tournaments across the US. He won countless awards including State Champion of Florida for Duo Interpretation.

In college Marc then started to think and ask himself many deep questions about life. His conversations within his own inner thought and with others about the these fundamental questions brought about a collection of pieces called “Mental Space” and with it a whole universe of ideas and different thoughts that Marc thought needed to be expressed about life and society.

Marc then began writing poetry, excited about the questions and inspired by a dream he had, which he describes in the poem/song entitled “Time”. He immersed himself into the world art and music. He taught himself how to play electric bass and acoustic guitar. He writes and performs his original music at different coffee shops in South Florida with his band “Marc and the Believers”. Music is a very big part of MarcPaperScissor and it has been a driving force behind his creativity.

Marc’s website www.MarcPaperScissor.com reflects his unique style. He created it entirely out of cut paper which was then scanned into a computer. He is currently working on writing and illustrating a children's poetry book about space. He is also in the process of recording the "Marc and the Believers" CD. He is in his final year at Florida Atlantic University were he his working towards his goal of becoming a professional artist with his very own studio. Marc believes that art can be both playful and powerful and his greatest hope is to use his work to inspire thought and change.

"Words do not express thoughts very well. They always become a little different immediately they are expressed, a little distorted, a little foolish. And yet it also pleases me and seems right that what is of value and wisdom to one man seems nonsense to another." -Buddha-
