Paper: Folded | Cut | Crumpled

This past March to August, I was happy to be part of the international exhibition of paper art at the Jaffa Museum in Israel, titled "Paper: Folded | Cut | Crumpled". The exhibition, curated by Paul Jackson, aimed to display the multitude of art forms that could be created from paper, and their diverse modes of artistic expression. Besides some of my favourite origami artists like Robert Lang and Giang Dinh, my eyes were opened by kinds of other paper art, from the architectural paper sculptures of Christina Lihan to the paper coil collages of Moshe Gordon. My own contribution was my Double Happiness origami model, featured in my origami design gallery. I'm glad it could play a part towards expanding the general public's horizons regarding the possibilities of the humble sheet of paper!
