Paper Art

Matt Shlian does amazing paper sculptures that move...

Movement of the Claw

My project basically is working with the movement and motion of plants. The reactions of them. My process of thinking has slowly moved towards the mechanical movement of a lobster/crab claw.

Through research I realised the body of the lobster is actually so much more interesting...but now after having my lobster shell for a few weeks its dried out and the body doesnt have that movement effect it used have.

But im keeping moving on... I started playing with origami. Its so easy to just pend hours folding which is why now im hoping some way i can connect with both. I'm not really sure how but ill see...

Heres a link to the origami i made which took forever to do!!
