"I find the materialization of a flat piece of paper into a 3D form as an almost magic process", says Callesen of his own work, "or maybe one could call it obvious magic, because the process is obvious and the figures still stick to their origin, without the possibility of escaping. In that sense there is also an aspect of something tragic in most of the cuts". - Peter Callesen
