ORIGAMI IN THE GARDEN

Our large botanical garden has lots of festivals and special events to draw in the public. The new display is called Origami In The Garden. The Japanese art of paper folding is expanded on a large scale, using metal as its material. This is a tower of gradually smaller cranes.

It's nice but not spectacular, which the publicity led me to expect. Part of the wow of origami is you made that out of paper? Anyone with the tools and training can weld  sheets of steel. Still, it is attractive amidst the spring foliage.
