(Un)Folding Patterns: Paper Reflections
This course focuses on folding patterns using a mathematical framework that colors Islamic patterns as a fun base and result for paper folding. We will go through the work of many of the great minds of origami and Islamic architecture and from these fields interpret ideas we can harness. The tutor will demonstrate techniques with clear diagrams and video material to shoow how a person may take advantage of what is already there. When we fold we do not add or subtract from the material, we simply transform that which is with what it is. In this sense, the patterns we will contemplate and produce are waiting on the surface.
The course is made up of five sessions, one per week, each of which goes over a series of topics with pre recorded material ready to guide into the matter at hand, as well as extra exercises available for the committed student looking to direct their journey towards the advanced and elaborate. Therefore, these sessions are designed for beginners and initiated alike. The sessions follow each other logically and are meant to equip the student with tools so to explore and apply the knowledge arrived at where it may fit.
We will be going over the stunning and satisfying art forms of origami and Islamic Patterns through comprehensive step-by-step processes that tie both these folded worlds together. The tools implicated and to be honed will empower the student with a novel way to look at the familiar.
