Weekly update - Lois Norman

This week I have been focusing my project around the idea of folding and origami. I began making shapes and patterns out of the envelopes I had collected. My favourite are the Chinese water bomb samples. They remind me very much of envelopes and letters in the way in which they are folded, I have attached blue, white and red thread to each of them to hang them up. I also have become excited by the idea of light and space and want to work with more transparent materials.

 This fold is known as a crab I have put my own twist on it and experimented with scale to give it my own unique style..

This is the Chinese water bomb fold, its simple and effective in producing the form that I want to achieve. On mass I can imagine they would make an impact. I need to start visualising and using Photoshop more to push my work further.
