Fujimoto's "Crowding Butterflies"
What: "Crowding Butterflies"
By: FUJIMOTO Shuzo
From: http://www.raviapte.com/gallery/FujimotoCrowdingButterflies,
BOS Convention 1989 Autumn, Oru 4 (photo, no diagrams)
Why: Ravi Apte posted photo diagrams for this beautiful, abstract model on his website (itself well worth a wander: http://www.raviapte.com/
) so I thought I'd give it a try.
This is a fun exploration of what you can do with the whole crossed-box pleat folding thing. Fujimoto sensei called it "ajisai ori" or "hydrangea folding" since you can use it to produce forms that look like multi-petalled hydrangea blossoms. Very cool.
