Times 2 Nov 09 ![]() The scene from Spellbound, made of paper tape on clear plastic - (Mark Khaisman/BNPS) The monochrome world of Hitchcock’s Spellbound has been revisited in a new artistic medium — layers of brown parcel tape stuck on to a 4ft-high sheet of clear plastic through which light is shone. The scene, taken from the director’s 1945 drama starring Ingrid Bergman and Gregory Peck, was created by Mark Khaisman, who sells his works for up to $10,000 (£6,000). Mr Khaisman, 51, from Philadelphia, previously worked with stained glass before switching to parcel tape. “The work is made from layer upon layer of translucent packing tape, applied to clear Plexiglas and placed in front of a light box to give shadow and depth,” said Mr Khaisman. “My art is a conversation with light.” | ||||||||||
