Folding origamis is not only an art form for me. It’s a philosophy of life, is commitment, patience, it’s my way to express myself in good and bad times. #origami #折り紙 #papiroflexia #paperfolding #dobradura #paperart #folding #folds #dobras #art #arte #おりがみ

Quando o mundo todo está escuro com a nossa sobriedade e nosso conhecimento, eu sempre busco me lembrar como as crianças são felizes, sem preconceitos, sem pré-conceitos. As crianças vivem no mundo não-existente, permeiam pelo que é subjetivo, são artistas por natureza, devir curioso, devir rizoma.


When the whole world is dark with our sobriety and our knowledge, I always try to remember how the kids are happy, without prejudice, without preconceptions. Children living in non-existent world, permeated by that is subjective, they are artists by nature, becoming curious, becoming rhizome.

Model: Rose, Calyx, Vase

Designed by: Naomiki Sato (rose), Kade Chan (calyx), Lee Armstrong (vase) 

It’s been some time since I made another origami piece, I haven’t been really having a good month in general so it ended up being kind of slow. These roses take quite a bit some time to make, but it ended up helping me keep my mind off things for a little while. 

I usually don’t make a lot of single sheet origami, mainly because I just feel like I can’t make them really well (because I suck at it). But the roses look nice with harmony paper.

Matt Shlian: The Unconventional Artist and Paper Engineer

Artist and designer Matt Shlian describes himself as a paper engineer. His work is somewhat atypical, a hybrid between art and science, where paper folding meets nanotechnology. Shlian, who began his journey by studying ceramics, found that he was interested in a variety of artistic endeavours including glass, painting, performance and sound. Although he earned a joint major in ceramics and print media, far from making traditional ceramics or print works, Shlian would instead create large digital prints and folded pop-up spreads.
