We Take It For Granted,

and mostly throw it away,


 and it is cardboard, but to Kai-Xiang Zhong, a 24-year-old self-taught artist from Taiwan, who has been called the “Tony Stark of cardboard” it is his medium of choice,

 the young Taiwanese artist has been busy adding to his collection of stunning cardboard sculptures, 

 which now features life-size animals, 

 monsters, 

and an awe-inspiring bust of Pennywise, the scary clown from ‘It’,


In an interview with Stan Winston School of Character Arts, Kai-Xiang Zhong said that, as a child, he always loved drawing the things he was interested in, like robots, monsters and dinosaurs. Then, in junior high-school, he started making paper sculptures, before finally settling on cardboard as his medium of choice, to see more of Kai-Xiang Zhong’s amazing cardboard art, check out his Instagram and Facebook, who would have thought of cardboard as a medium,but there it is and we have just thrown a mountain of it away as we unpacked all of the household goods we have bought in the last few weeks!
