Annemarieke Kloosterhof is a London-based Dutch artist who works in painting, collage, design and particularly in all things paper including single or multi-layered paper-cut illustrations, paper props, film sets and large-scale installations. In this episode, she talks about how her passion for paper first began, how nostalgia has been a theme in her work, the importance of experimentation, how she made a spectacular paper installation for the Bridgerton TV series, making three West-end theatres from paper, her use of recycled paper, how her paintings deal with issues such as female sexuality and how she has made paper versions of classic furniture for London’s Leighton House museum.
