# Sublime Color Spectrum Art Maud Vantours’ Spirales Series is Made Using Layered Paper Cutouts By Jana Pijak | Published 2014-07-04 | Art & Design Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/layered-paper References: [inspirefirst](http://www.inspirefirst.com/2014/07/03/spirales-maud-vantours/) & [maudvantours](http://maudvantours.com/3d-paper/spirales/) These sublime sculptures are the work of Maud Vantours, a designer and artist from Paris, France that is known for her layered paper masterpieces. With a background in [textile design](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/olga-de-amaral) and research, the artist creates graphic compositions that are rich in texture. Her tactile masterpieces are multi-dimensional and capture dreamlike scenes that play with a viewer’s perception. While she has experimented with sharp, geometric shapes in the past, Maud plays with volume and proportion in her latest series of [layered paper compositions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/tekla-evelina-severin-and-layered) that resemble spherical dreamscapes. This series showcases a spectrum of vivid hues and features 2D constructions that are evocative of landscapes, sunsets and [sound waves](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/the-kinetic-collection). These sublime portraits evoke a calm air and are reflective of the artist’s playful aesthetic. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 2.4/10 - Popularity: 57% | Activity: 8% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: North America, South America, Europe, Asia, Africa ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Art & Design](https://www.trendhunter.com/artdesign) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Layered Paper Art:** Embracing the technique of layered paper cutouts can lead to unique and visually stunning artwork. - **Tactile Compositions:** Creating multi-dimensional artworks that offer a tactile experience can enhance viewer engagement and perception. - **Spectrum of Vivid Hues:** Using a vibrant and diverse color spectrum can add depth and visual impact to artistic creations. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Art and Design:** Artists and designers can incorporate layered paper techniques to create visually captivating installations and artworks. - **Textile Design:** Exploring the use of layered paper in textile design can result in unique and textured fabric creations. - **Gallery and Exhibition:** Art galleries and exhibition spaces can showcase tactile and visually engaging artworks to attract and captivate visitors. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Sculptural Paper Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/fragmenti.md) - [Colorful Texture Exhibitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/colorscape-installation.md) - [Sculptural Mixed-Media Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/folded-echoes.md) - [Vibrantly Colorful Dynamic Artwork](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/kayla-rumpp.md) - [Color-Blending Kinetic Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/felipe-pantone.md) - [immersive artful bright installations](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/chroma-installation.md) - [Intersecting Dimensional Art Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/diorama.md) - [Towering Reclaimed Wooden Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/louise-durham.md) - [Candy-Like Colorful Glass Sculptures](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/gele-series.md)
