Description
|
|
|
|
Describing their pop-up creations for youngsters up to 8 as "the artistic intersection of origami and pop-up paper engineering," James and Francesca Diaz imagine what would happen if the paper items we saw every day suddenly transformed themselves into origami-like creatures. Newspaper pages fly away like birds; tickets and travel documents sail away like paper boats; scraps of construction paper at art class become a nest for baby dinosaurs; and a Chinese menu folds out on both sides—a pop-up tableau 36 inches across—to release a paper dragon with a takeout-box head. In many cases the folded art can be gently expanded to make it even more impressive.
