Artists' book exploring art forms related to paper. "Similar to 'Cutting paper' in format and approach, the book explores the art of folded paper, and presents a collection of samples on the pages and laid into the accompanying box. Brief essays discuss folding techniques, the process of creating illustrated pieces, and paper choices. Interspersed are over 150 tipped-in examples from pleating, education, computational geometry, toy making, origami and packaging (some examples are presented shown in progress, as well as finished pieces, in a variety of papers)"--Heavenly Monkey blog (www.heavenlymonkeybooks.blogspot.com)
