“It always seems impossible until it’s done.”
– Nelson Mandela
Origami is the only art form that transforms two-dimensional objects—paper—into three dimensions. “Together,” a green rounded origami structure displayed on a pedestal at the Dayton Art Institute, is made of circular, intertwined pieces of watercolor paper that have been hand-folded, alternating between “mountains” (creases at the top of the folds) and “valleys” (creases at the bottom of the folds. Its structure conveys a loose, relaxed state while simultaneously showcasing something not typically associated with thin paper: a sound sturdiness.
How can you pursue for yourself the combination of a loose, relaxed state with sturdiness?
