LARGE SCALE
ORIGAMI SCULPTURESSINGLE PAPER FOLD
I N T R O D U C T I O N
Born in 1989 in Hanoi, Vietnam, Nguyen Hung Cuong has found the joy of transforming a piece of paper into anything his mind drives, only by folding. Cuong not only considers the anatomical proportions of the sub-jects but also seek for elegance and pleasure when interact with paper. His work is a combination of extraordinary paper sculpture and fluid folding sequence.
Cuong established Vietnam Origami Group, and some years later published many origami books. He has been invited to origami conventions around the world, and showcases his works in many galleries and museums from Tokyo to New York. Cuong won 1st prize as a Best Solo Artist in World Art Dubai in 2017.
He can fold any object in any size, large scale sculptures takes up to eight weeks to fold. It is easy to forget that these were all created simply (!) by folding a single piece of paper. This level of skill just has to be seen to be believed.
F O L D I N G P R O C E S S
I have started design Origami since I was six. Origami can be craft, science or art. What I love about origami is that I can make anything from one piece of paper just by folding it. Since I’m not good with words, I use origami to share my ideas, how I feel and how beautiful this world is.
My inspirations come from anywhere. I always create what I like. I have folded origami models in many styles: simple to super-complex, abstract to detailed, realistic designs. I believe each model needs its own kind of paper. So I always try to find the papers which are best for my models. Recently I’m working with a type of Vietnamese handmade paper called Dó. This kind of paper existed in Vietnam many centuries ago but people don’t think that it can be used for origami. When I tried it, I was surprised that it delivered so many beautiful results. I will experience more to find which models can take the most advantage from this paper.
