Artist Statement
This was my first solo exhibition as a practicing artist. I wanted to challenge myself with my paper craft by completing a large-scale origami installation of 100 cranes where each crane was all joined together in a single piece of paper, wing-tip tp wing-tip. I displayed this alongside a series of smaller washi paper works where the paper crane was still attached to the paper it came from. The challenge allowed me to venture out of my comfort zone technically and ignite the beginning of my solo exhibitions.
