Churn out beautiful products out of papers
Hyderabad: Media Junction is to organise a unique two
day workshop on Origami, the unique Japanese art of paper folding(kaagaz ka
karigar). Disclosing these details Mrs. D. Kalpana, Media Junction Director
said, the two day workshop will be conducted by Origamist Mr. Govind Gopal
Kulkarni on 12th and 13th February from 10am to 5pm. The workshop is organised
for the children in the age group of 8 to 16 years.
Imagine that you are folding coloured papers of your choice and on the spur of a
moment you come out with an object that you have reconstructed from your
observation of the world. a flower vase, a tulip, a flower, leaves with a bud, a
jumping frog, a crane, a dove-the symbol of peace, a lamp-shade, a pen case,and
what not? Children can give wings to their imagination and make a fascinating
variety of objects.
According to Mr. Govind Kulkarni, Origami is not just about folding paper. It’s
an art in itself. It is a process that demands concentration, intelligence and
an aesthetic sense of space and mass. It is essentially a way of life that
people of Eastern countries, especially the Japanese had devised with great
poetic depth and breadth. Origami is a Japanese word, literally meaning to fold
(oru) paper (kami). And is very useful programme for children. It helps them to
develope concentration not only learning this art but in studies as well.
Brilliant Origami folds can also be an excellent interior design accessory.
These aesthetically designed pieces can enhance the beauty of elegant homes.
There is a wide scope and plenty of room for experimentation. Children can let
loose your imagination and see what the creative process churns out.
The workshop teaches methods, concepts, history and everything possible about
Origami. At the end of the two days workshop students learn to make many
creative and routine objects out of paper.
Parents desirous of sending their students to the workshop may get in touch with
Media Junction on phone: 93913-25568. The entry is restricted to 20 children on
first come first registered basis.
