Richard Sweeney

Richard Sweeney was born in Huddersfield, England in 1984. He attended Manchester Metropolitan University where he studied three dimensional design. Here he decided to concentrate on a hands-on approach and started to manipulate paper and created design models which developed into interesting sculptures. Richard's use of photography really contributes to how successful some of his models look. The way he has arranged the lightening creates shadow which really enhances the smaller details of his work.

The work of Richard Sweeney has real inspired me to experiment with paper forms. I really like his works where he has created an organic look. Some of these examples can be seen below. From looking at Sweeney's work I have decided to research repetition in flowers.
