Description

To celebrate their 90th anniversary, Rhodia has teamed up with the French artist Jean Jullien. His Paper People and Rhodia pads are indeed an obvious choice! Paper People tells the story of an idea sketched at first on a piece of paper. It is left aside. But the idea comes alive! It now creates its own friend, and its friend creates another, and so on. They become Paper People. After successful shows in Melbourne, Tokyo and other venues around the world, Paper People are now taking over a collection of happy and colourful notepads. It’s up to anyone to bring them to life! Play, cut and draw with this new ‘paper’ family.
