We had pleasure of working with Richard Sweeney in our workshop. He set us the task of creating 3D forms from a single sheet of A5 paper, we couldn't use any sort of adhesive, or extra paper so had to improvise with tabs, folds and slits to connect sections of the paper together. This limits what you can do slightly especially when producing delicate forms. I found it quite tricky keeping parts of the design where I wanted them as they kept popping out so to speak. I experimented with scoring, cutting, folding and twisting the paper. However I could of expanded my experimentation by trying to rip and tear the paper, so this is something I will try in my own time (hopefully).

One of my favourite techniques I used to create my pieces was scoring; using this method allowed me to create delicate and elegant forms consisting of curves and twists, similar to those found within nature.
