Dramatically Back-Lit Paper Dioramas by Hari & Deepti

Cut Paper Light Boxes by Hari & Deepti

Art duo Hari & Deepti (Harikrishnan Panicker and Deepti Nair) create dramatically back-lit cut paper dioramas in LED light boxes. The light boxes allow the duo to create a sense of depth and atmosphere in the dioramas—they look totally different when the light is switched off.

What amazes us about the paper cut light boxes is the dichotomy of the piece in its lit and unlit state, the contrast is so stark that it has this mystical effect on the viewers.
