Description of work: Scary scenarios, nefarious narratives, perilous predicaments and delirious dilemmas are all ingredients in Mary Gaynier’s tales of the unexpected. That “don’t look now, but…” moment is immortalized through the lost art of cut paper. View these fabulous paper “snowflakes” and yell eek, shriek and maybe even giggle, too as Mary points out the moments when fate climbs into life’s drivers seat, and humans come along for the ride.
