This is not your everyday paper art. Russian artist Asya Kozina has been turning paper into high-art for years, and won renown for her impressive Mongolian wedding costumes. Kozina explains her motivation on Behance:
“Historical wigs always fascinated me, especially the baroque era,” Kozina says. “this is art for art’s sake aesthetics for aesthetics — no practical sense, but they are beautiful. in this case, paper helps to highlight the main form and not to be obsessed with unnecessary details.”

It is not a Russian artist. She is from Ukraine. She writes in Ukrainian. She is a Ukrainian artist.
Asya Kozina from St Petersburg has created a range of intricate and extremely delicate wedding gowns out of plain sheets of white paper. The Russian-born artist studied old drawings and sepia photographs of traditional Mongolian wedding dresses and based her extravagant line on outfits worn hundreds of years ago.

Lovely - the artist has a mastery of color and composition. They had me smiling as I beheld one treat after another!
Make those wigs from something waterproof, and you'd sell MILLIONS in the Seattle area!!
