Another shot of our 1000+ flowers Origami Farawave

Another shot of our 1000+ flowers Origami Farawave flower from this week's event in Berlin with @Bostonsci

I love the way origami creates so much interesting texture when bulked together like this - I often talk about that in my online workshops actually too. Even as an experiment, pop a few folds in a sheet of paper and instantly you'll see a whole range of highlights and shadows.

If like to explore this more in my personal work too @michaeljtrew of you're interested in that.

In fact, with some sad events unfolding in my studio in East London this week, I'm going to be moving more down the line of personal work than large scale work like this for Boston - watch this space to see how things "unfold"

Still super committed to online workshops though as they're really enjoyable and getting great feedback too on them!

Anyway. Thanks to @Bostonsci for having us on board again for this event #nhaf2022

It's been so busy in the studio preparing these 10

It's been so busy in the studio preparing these 1000+ origami flowers for a huge origami sculpture of the ground breaking Farapulse Pulsed Field Ablation System for an event here in Berlin with @bostonsci #nhaf2022

The thousands of petals represent those globally who have benefited from this revolutionary treatment for arrhythmia in the heart, all made by hand in our London studios (thanks to the team who got stuck in with me on this!)

Yes, it's a busy one here in the studio this week with many hands making light work of these gorgeous #origami #roses for an upcoming installation.

Grateful for the ability to work with others in a team!

A final shot for now (lol!) from the show at the @Rheged_centre until September! Such a delight to share the 2 pieces with various interested people at the PV, thank you all for engaging so much with the work!⁠

My work at the current show at the @rheged_centre

My work at the current show at the @rheged_centre is in good company!⁠
⁠
Very inspirational to see these #Matisse prints in real life⁠
⁠
"It seems to me I'm in my second life" - I can relate to that, sir!

I was very proud to be able to show this new work,

I was very proud to be able to show this new work, Phyllotaxis 2.1 at the summer exhibition at the @rheged_centre in Penrith.⁠
⁠
It has been years in the making, and I was dead chuffed at all the positive comments and feedback - lovely to meet some of the other artists at the show too.⁠
⁠
I'm doing more work like this (and others!) now as @michaeljtrew so check out my other Insta to follow along!⁠

Phyllotaxis 2.0 120x120cm paper on board This pi

Phyllotaxis 2.0
120x120cm paper on board

This piece is years in the making and finally made and showing at the @rheged_centre from tomorrow evening!!

The name Phyllotaxis means Seed Arrangement in Greek. I've used a simple algorithm to place points in 3d space digitally, then built pyramids on each point to create this physical representation of the beautiful sunflower seed head which its easy to ignore in daily life!

The spirals are mesmerising and complex as it uses the (most) irrational number, phi, in the construction.

I got some lovely comments about how entrancing it is in my studio so can't wait to see it at the gallery tomorrow night!

Excited to say I will be exhiting in my 3rd show in 2022 this Summer at the @Rheged_centre in Penrith! I'll be showing 2 pieces along side about 50 other contemporary paper artists, and on top of that, a selection of prints of Matisse's papercuts!

What an honour!

Matisse and Contemporary Paper Artists Rheged's summer exhibition includes Matisse: Drawing with Scissors, his late works 1950-1954, a Hayward Gallery Touring Exhibition, which features 35 lithographic prints of the famous cut-outs produced by Henri Matisse (1869-1954) in the last four years of his life.

The exhibition also features 200 artworks by 40 leading British Paper Artists including animation, origami, fashion, collage, 3d sculpture and paper cuts, many of which are for sale. The exhibition includes children's activities and a make and create area. There is also a programme of adult and family-friendly artist led workshops. (bookable in advance) Open daily 28 May - 04 September | 9am -5.30pm

Introducing one of the pieces on show from Friday $Introducing one of the pieces on show from Friday at the @rheged_centre in Penrith, for the upcoming Matisse & Contemporary Paper Artists exhibition Check out my fine art insta at @michaeljtrew for more! TETRATAXIS is a triptych that explores a very simple origami design based on a fractal pattern with a simple 45 degree twist and 50% scale factor. Then the other 2 pieces shake all that up, with angles and inspiration from fibonnaci sequences, hand folded but design using #parametric design ideas I love the idea of a mathematical idea that also looks and feels organic and also really enjoyed using the fantastic Vanguard paper with thanks to James Cropper Speciality Paper @jamescropperspecialitypaper in Marine Blue, Sunshine Yellow, and Pink at 120gsm More pics coming after the PV on Friday! #paperart #londonartist #Penrith #lakedistrict #creativity #kunst #fractal #origami #paperfolding #contemporaryart #modernart #papersculpture #artinfluencer Thanks to @stour.studios for a great space to make the work too!$
