Origami is the Japanese art of paper folding. In modern usage, the word “origami” is often used as an inclusive term for all folding practices, regardless of their culture of origin…. (Wikipedia)
We have just entered the Year of the Fire Horse, which is a very relevant topic for an origami workshop and in celebration of those of us who are the year of the horse.
Origami artist Hoàng Tiến Quyết will guide us in how to make a paper horse. To keep it as relevant as possible to Vietnam we will fold with traditional Vietnamese dó paper (that has been layered with glue to strenghten the paper). Quyết’s website explains “I have been folding paper since I was a small kid. At the time I was amazed at how a flat sheet of paper could transform into beautiful 3D animals and objects, and it was also a joy of a kid who could make his own toys. I kept folding alone for a long time, till I found Vietnam Origami Group forum ……I like working with new and fresh ideas, and always try to breathe life and my personality into my models. I hope people can also feel that from my work”
