Summer Breif- (part 1) Explaining Origami

So orgami -
Now surely at least 1 person in someones whole family knows the classic origami game.
~You pick a colour then number and find out what the persons wrote underneath.By opening layers.




Wiki Explanation-
Origami (折り紙, from ori meaning "folding", and kami meaning "paper"; kami changes to gami due to rendaku) is the traditional Japanese art of paper folding, which started in the 17th century AD at the latest and was popularized outside Japan in the mid-1900s. It has since then evolved into a modern art form. The goal of this art is to transform a flat sheet of material into a finished sculpture through folding and sculpting techniques, and as such the use of cuts or glue are not considered to be origami.


Dictionary Explantion -
traditional Japanese art or technique a variety of decorative or representational forms, as of animals or flowers.

In my words-
Paper folding to create something structured.

Changing into fashion-
This ones obvious! I will have to go through different fabric techniques such as pleating to and folding and stichting to hold a certain shape. Such as points off the shoulder etc.
