Traditional techniques and ritual art, with a contemporary and personal touch.

Hi, I’m Shifra, a papercut artist based out of Evanston, IL. Ever since my father taught me how to cut with an X-acto knife when I was 7 years old, I look at materials though positive and negative space. This family tradition has led me to become an artist and designer, creating professional art pieces in paper and textiles for over 20 years.
