Around the World in Cut-Outs
If you want a fresh spin on travel and photography, London-based Rich McCor is the man to watch. Using skillfully crafted paper cutouts and a camera alone, Rich began the journey of Paperboyo. His collection features various cutout silhouettes against foreign backdrops or landmarks, and the results are highly amusing. His creations are genius, creative, and extremely refreshing in an industry where so much content is alike. The cutouts are made using a scalpel knife, cutting board, and of course, his imagination. He claims it is a very therapeutic process, even when a mistake is made. We highly recommend giving him a follow – he’ll make your Instagram feed a lot more interesting. See his Instagram page here.
