De-construction

  1. Psssst. Don't tell anyone, but I'm pretty sure if you unfold it, you'll get a piece of paper;)

  2. Don't unfold it! It's part of a secret Japanese Plan to give westerners papercuts...the edges are razor sharp. The Japanese have been furious with us since we started serving PB&J in Bento Boxes. Also they are quite upset, so I hear, about Hiroshima.

  3. I love the scale of it in your drawing. I love tiny origami. I remember being in a Paris pub many moons ago and having a demi of lager at the bar. Next to me was some kind of social worker volunteer fella who had taken out a plainly mentally disabled guy. The (disabled) guy made the most beautiful and delicate miniature origami antelope from his cigarette pack's silver paper. I was quite into origami at the time and had never seen anything like it before. The guy noticed me watching him make it and gave me it when he was finished. Nothing was said. I didn't speak much French and maybe he didn't speak at all. I carried it around zipped up in my wallet for many years, but alas lost it some time ago.
