Origami
Catherine Chin As a child, my mother and I would spend our weekends folding origami as a sort of arts and crafts. In an attempt to honor this tradition, I have continued in the art of paper folding, but put my own spin on it. Each of my structures is made from the same triangular piece, however for each structure I have altered the spatial arrangement of the triangles and even created my own patterned paper. After the structure is built I photograph my pieces against a dark background with strong lighting to create shadows, which then become a part of the art itself. Through this I transformed my childhood craft into a more sophisticated piece of art. |
