LARGE SCALE

ORIGAMI SCULPTURES
SINGLE PAPER FOLD
 INTRODUCTION

Born in 1989 in Hanoi, Vietnam, Nguyen Hung Cuong has found the
joy of transforming a piece of paper into anything his mind drives, only by
folding. Cuong not only considers the anatomical proportions of the sub-
jects but also seek for elegance and pleasure when interact with paper. His
work is a combination of extraordinary paper sculpture and fluid folding
sequence.

Cuong established Vietnam Origami Group, and some years later

published many origami books. He has been invited to origami conventions
around the world, and showcases his works in many galleries and museums
from Tokyo to New York. Cuong won 1st prize as a Best Solo Artist in World
Art Dubai in 2017.

He can fold any object in any size, large scale sculptures takes up to
eight weeks to fold. It is easy to forget that these were all created simply
(!) by folding a single piece of paper. This level of skill just has to be seen
to be believed.

 BIOGRAPHY

I have started design Origami since I was six. Origami can be craft,
science or art. What I love about origami is that I can make anything from
one piece of paper just by folding it. Since I’m not good with words, I use
origami to share my ideas, how I feel and how beautiful this world is.

My inspirations come from anywhere. I always create what I like. I have

folded origami models in many styles: simple to super-complex, abstract to
detailed, realistic designs. I believe each model needs its own kind of paper.
So I always try to find the papers which are best for my models. Recently I’m
working with a type of Vietnamese handmade paper called Dó. This kind of
paper existed in Vietnam many centuries ago but people don’t think that it
can be used for origami. When I tried it, I was surprised that it delivered so
many beautiful results. I will experience more to find which models can take
the most advantage from this paper.
