Origami-Style Metal Fabrication

This workshop will explore ideas and techniques for combining the ancient art of origami with modern metalworking. We will transform flat sheets of copper or silver into intricate and structurally complex, three-dimensional shapes. As students learn a bit about the history and evolution of origami and begin to apply its principles to metalwork, they will develop an understanding of metal properties, structural mechanics, and the technical aspects of cutting and folding metal. Techniques will include sawing, piercing, soldering, and finishing processes. Basic metalworking skills will be helpful but this workshop is open to all levels. Upper metals studio.
