I am a 24-year-old artist currently living in South Florida specializing in visual and musical communication. I work in many different mediums and continue to experiment, but I am best known for my work with paper collage. Using paper and scissors has become my preferred form of artistic expression, hence the name "MarcPaperScissor". The only tools I use include a variety of color cardstock paper, regular scissors (no-exacto knifes), glue stick, a black sharpie and my imagination.
I begin by designing, cutting and assembling a variety of shapes from the vibrant colors I use. Each shape is hand-cut with regular scissors. My process is meticulous and one that tests my patience, concentration and persistence.

Every scrap of paper that is left over is saved in a giant cardboard box to be used for later works. In this way the cast-offs from one composition can become the heart and soul of the next, also to avoid wasting paper.

My artwork has been exhibited in galleries, music festivals and many different venues, as well as used for album art, show posters, T-shirts, and charity auctions. My work is comprised of both conceptual and abstract art. Some of the themes I touch upon in my work include the
environment, the mind, perception, our senses, politics, nature, cultures, science, technology, sex, space, music, and all the amazing things and thoughts, which make up our universe and beyond.

"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-
