“French artist Anastassia Elias takes discarded toilet paper rolls and carefully and patiently creates tiny domestic scenes inside the brown paper roll. It’s amazing how art has evolved from off the sides of mugs into quaint mixed media. Each scene is cut out from the inside so as not to disturb the integrity of the paper roll - an almost absurdly gentle approach to one of the most commonplace waste materials on the planet … yet somehow reminiscent of the ancient art of painting inside of blown-glass balls, which had only the smallest of openings on one side.
The tiny toilet paper scenes depict domestic bliss – people are sitting calmly in rocking chairs, shopping or looking out the window. The calm domesticity is a subtle reference to the humble origins of the toilet paper roll.”Click through on the picture for more
