A QUESTION OF INTERPRETATION

Not all of the pieces in the Origami In The Garden show appear to relate to the Japanese art of paper folding. Paper has a limited ability to curve. If I were to walk up to this with no context and someone asked me what it made me think of, I'd say some kind of segmented succulent plant with a moth draped in a sheet escaping from the top. 

The blue placard on the right says the name is Emerging Peace. Um, maybe more like a winged insect dressed as a ghost for Halloween, but that's just me. The tulips are nice.

Odd. Yes, the tulips are beautiful.

I often like non-objective objects...sculptures, that is. But here I agree with you, the tulips are nice.
