Detailed description:

Get ready to dive into the world of Momigami! This is an ancient Japanese paper manipulation technique that involves crumpling, smoothing, and enhancing its texture to create beautiful, unique patterns. You will be able to use your sheets for collage, book arts, stitching, invitations, bookbinding, origami and fiber arts projects. You can even draw on them! This class is a chance to explore something new and embrace the unexpected. Throughout the workshop, as you learn how to fold and crumple and embrace the meditative nature of this craft, allowing your creativity to flow freely as you treat the paper to achieve a fabric-like structure.

About the host

I’m a multi-disciplinary artist, and love to engage with folk/tribal art from across the world – wiPth a special focus on India. I design and conduct experiential workshops, giving a contemporary bent to heritage Art n Craft. I have thoroughly enjoyed conducting in-person and online workshops for audiences in India, USA, UK, Australia, Dubai. My workshop at Amazon HQ in Seattle demonstrated the ease with which art communicates with people from different countries and ethnicities.  The learning and sharing process has been unique in each workshop and the participants’ ages have varied from age 8 to 80!
