origami

the traditional Japanese art of folding paper


pure origami or traditional origami is origami folded from

a single sheet of paper without any cuts, glue, or tape


improves attention, eye~hand coordination, mathematical reasoning, memory, and patience

develops fine motor skills, mental concentration skills, sequencing skills, as well as spatial skills

gentle activity that shifts focus away from stress

activates tactile, motor, and visual areas of the brain

focus realigned with the calming repetitive folds












kirie

the art of cutting designs on paper

by hand using a blade


taking inspiration from mother nature and my Peranakan heritage


the world of the Peranakans are rich in culture, heritage, and traditions,

building their love for art and the finer things in life through their hands,

while understanding the enjoyment of being beautiful inside and out

as nyonyas take pleasure in cooking extraordinary dishes, sewing intricate kebayas and kasut maniks, as well as sourcing for the best kerongsang (brooches), hairpins, and batik,

amongst the many things to match their kebaya, here they are all represented through paper
