Tim West’s unique ability to see his drawings 3-dimensionally before ever cutting a single piece of paper allows him to actually sculpt light and shadow by using paper to achieve his vision. The sculptures in the Tim West Fine Art Collection begin with as few as 20 hand-cut paper pieces to well over 1,000. The pieces are then scored, rolled, sculpted and assembled to bring a Tim West original to life.
Depending on complexity, an original sculpture can take anywhere from three weeks to three months to create.
Disney, FOX Studios, Gibson Greeting Cards, Kodak and Sesame Workshop are just a few of the companies that have showcased the work of Tim West. Tim West’s history with Disney spans more than 15 years, and includes numerous awards for his work, including Print Magazine’s Design Award for his collaboration on the Walt Disney World Resort’s Amenities Package.
