For ELLE, Andreas Achmann stages a watch special using paper constructions. Through papercutting and layered paper elements, graphic structures emerge that simultaneously conceal and reveal the timepieces.
The fine cuts act like visual shutters, guiding the viewer’s gaze and introducing movement into the still-life compositions. Positioned between papercraft and set design, the imagery develops a visual language that plays with depth, rhythm, and materiality – presenting the watches as sculptural objects within a constructed space.
