Scherenschnitt - Swiss Papercutting Artists at Work

A short film of Swiss papercutting artists' work, including Beatrice Straubhaar, Ernst Oppliger, Ueli Hofer, and Elisabeth Bottesi-Fischer. Shows the artists' hands cutting paper, regional scenes from Switzerland, and examples of Scherenschnitt work. The materials for this short film were collected during my research expedition to Switzerland in the summer of 2007.

I really enjoyed this video. I have been creating papercuts for 30 years. My technique is totally different - I have never used scissors so this was terrific.
