Story & Message:
There was so much weight on her shoulders, that she didn’t even realize it until it was all lifted by a strange incident. The windows and doors were closed, but as she was sitting there, taking deep breaths with her eyes closed, something started to lift her. It was a tingling sensation as if it was a swarm of butterflies that was lifting her. It wasn’t anything she could explain. It wasn’t a sudden realization that reduced the gravity around her, but something more like a deep silence, an awareness of the simplicity of the moment.
From my project “Life of Folds”
Origami is the art of turning a plain sheet of paper into practically any shape. The transformation of a piece of paper into virtually anything made me think of how we as humans tend to turn plain facts and life situations into positive or negative ones when we react to them emotionally.
In this series, origamis represent emotions that can sometimes be overwhelming, drive you in some direction, and make you act a certain way. You can’t fight them. If you try, you will fail. So many of us have unresolved emotions from our childhood that drag us down and turn us into miserable human beings. You can only be at peace with yourself when you acknowledge these emotions, observe them, let them be, and pass through you.
