Yokai Origami Workshop at the Art After Hours!
So excited to run the origami workshop at Art Gallery of NSW.
Current exhibition, “Japan Supernatural” is the collection of Japanese Yokai, Mononoke, Ghost, so I was asked to make some Yokai origami! I came up with the idea of three origami: White Fox (Kuzu no ha), Demon (oni), Demon’s hand (Ibaraki)
The workshop was full of people, all keen to learn the origami to take home! Two helpers from the AGNSW educator team were great!
Such a enjoyable evening!! Thank you AGNSW for organising the workshop.
