delfortgroup's Sarah Deal Chase sits down with several members of the management team and the artist Mario Dalpra to discuss the art of papermaking and what drives delfortgroup in their daily business. a conversation with some of delfortgroup's forward-thinkers Deal Chase: Mr. Dalpra has been working on various artprojects with delfortgroup for some time now. What was the primary motivation for this cooperation? Faihs: Each sculpture and painting, like each grade of our specialty paper, is a masterpiece that draws on the artist's unique experiences, personality, and know-how. As such, we wanted to illustrate through Mr. Dalpra's art how the full character and quality of our paper products are similarly one-of-a-kind, impossible to replicate. Zahlbruckner: Mr. Dalpra has supported delfortgroup on a number of projects with beautiful, modern artwork that invites the audience to consider new innovative ways of working with various materials. Dalpra: It has been a pleasure to work with a company like delfortgroup who understands and appreciates a more bold and imaginative style of art. I have greatly enjoyed getting to know so many creative and flexible people throughout our various projects together. It's always fun to share new ideas with other artists, whether their art is in the form of painting or paper. Zahlbruckner: Much like the art of papermaking at delfortgroup, Mr. Dalpra holds nothing back when it comes to pushing the boundaries and standards of the industry. He truly gives the audience the opportunity to see into, and even to reinvent, the future of design. we are beyond all imagination Artist: Mario Dalpra | www.dalpra.at
