Exhibition Text:
This artwork is of three, enlarged pieces made only from cardboard that are replications of smaller version of origami. There is a crane, a jumping frog and a heart. All three origami pieces took inspiration from the artwork of Gerado Hacer and Sipho Mabona. The artists created enormous origami, and even though my artwork is not nearly as large as theirs the attention to detail and same ideas inspired my artwork. Additional much like these two artists the choice of what I decided to create is not random. These three pieces are a scaled up version of origami the tooth fairy (my dad) over the years gave to me when ever I lost a tooth. He took the extra time and effort to not just give me money but something he knew I would like. This artwork is made entirely of cardboard and a little glue.
