Who knew the humble toilet roll can be a work of art? Anastassia Elias cuts out people and objects (with paper the same color scheme as the roll) and sticks them inside, so that they look as if they’re part of the toilet roll itself! See more at her portfolio site. The juxtaposition of light and shadow makes it a whimsical display of 3D art!

My daughter plays with toilet paper rolls all the time so I just showed her this and she exclaimed, “See mom! I’m not the only one!!!” LOL Thanks, now I have to let her save them now. ROFL These are brilliant, I love dioramas and this is a fabulous twist on it.

Awesome! But the roll has just one color, so it’s not exactly a color scheme is it?
