Gomigami

Dramatic forms suspended in peaceful stillness. Full of emotion yet strangely quiet. Chaotic, but somehow making sense. Boring or hypnotic?
Using salvaged off cuts from the paper background used in the studio I explore the complex beauty hidden in the overlooked. What was once deemed as trash now takes centre stage.
The title “Gomigami” is a playful twist on the traditional Japanese art of origami, where “gomi” meaning “trash” or “waste” replaces “ori” (folding) and “gami” meaning “paper”.
