pop-up art
Temporary gallery spaces
Pop-up art is three-dimensional paper artwork that rises or unfolds when a page is opened or a card is unfolded.
The technique appears in children's books, greeting cards, and standalone sculptural pieces.
More elaborate examples involve intricate engineering with multiple layers and moving parts: The pop-up art in that book transforms flat pages into entire cityscapes.
