A piece of paper, if you want to get all technical, is three-dimensional, since it has height, width, and depth. But most us think of it as 2-D, with no real depth. Danish artist Peter Callesen adds true 3-D depth to paper in his how-did-he-do-that paper sculptures (or papercuts, as he calls them). From a sheet of paper, he can create a Tower of Babel, a wedding dress, or a castle that's both cut, yet still connected to its paper of origin. They really have to seen to be believed. See them here.
