Scissors for a brush

I saw Karen Bit Vejle's magical cuttings in the travelling exhibition Scissors for a brush. It is located at Verkaranta hall right next to the river banks of Tammerkoski.
She says: "My heart and soul are at peace when I have the scissors in hand and the paper dances between the blades." Paper cuttings have strong position in her homeland of Danmark. She finished cuttings nearly 40 years, and as she never had anywhere else to keep them, they have just remained hidden underneath her rugs. They might have stayed there forever, if a colleague had not happened to look under her rugs (!) and find them. Papercutart
