The history of origami
The fascinating history of origami. Let’s go back centuries to Japan, where someone had the brilliant idea of folding paper to create incredible shapes. Initially reserved for monks and nobility, this art form gradually captivated everyone.
Imagine artists spending hours, even days, folding and shaping paper to create breathtaking creations. Simple squares of paper were transformed into realistic animals and complex structures. It was much more than just a hobby, it was a true art, a way of pushing back the boundaries of the imagination.
But origami wasn’t just visually fascinating. Scientists, teachers and even therapists used the practice for a wide variety of purposes. Its impact has been considerable!
Today, origami is a source of inspiration for creativity. Soothing, entertaining, it also offers a unique opportunity to share something singular. At Artigamis, we’re passionate about this tradition, while adding our own personal touch.
