Archie Granot
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Archie Granot is a paper cut artist based in Israel. He works in traditional Jewish art, including ketubahs (ketubot), mizrachs, mezuzahs, blessings for the Jewish life cycle, etc.
Granot uses a scalpel to produce his papercut works, rather than the scissors which are more common with other artists. Granot's use of Hebrew inscriptions, handcut in calligraphic letters in his Jewish papercuts, is an integral part of his work. Many of the texts relate to Jerusalem, Judaism and Israel.
