Yuko Nishimura - Optical paper folding

After my last post I declare its paper sculpting and folding week here at NatureisData!
The simple act of folding paper gives rise to sculptural forms that with particular lighting can produce architectural forms and geometric patterns of subtle contrast. I’m impressed with paper-folding’s extreme technological economy - requiring no specialist equipment other than a pair of functional hands. Yuko Nishimura produces complex optical paper works and space-structures with undulating folds and creases. These works remind us of both the op-art works of the 60’s as well as more recent forays into the geometric generative syntax.
