Shawn Sheehy’s interest in paper engineering grew from his background in sculpture, graphic design and book arts. Sheehy editions pop-up artist books and creates trade pop-up books (Welcome to the Neighborwood, 2015). He teaches paper engineering workshops all over the U.S. (recently at Focus On Book Arts in late June 2017)
