Certainly I am not the first to see these wrapped parcel works and automatically credit Christo and Jeanne-Claude, but its only when you look very closely that you find out these are not sculptures but photorealistic paintings.
In these amazing oil paintings, by Swedish artist Yrjo Edelmann, we see in detail every paper’s fold, shadow and texture.
His paintings play with shape and shade, with proportions and the properties of color. His creations challenge our senses, and make us question what truly exists.
