Initial Research



Won Park

After having some time to think about possible ideas of what to make using paper, I remembered that a few years back, I loved art using Dollar bills. Won Park is a paper artist who uses the printed money as his choice of media.

There is no glue or tape or even cutting involved, if any of his designs were unfolded they could be used like any other money.

What I like so much about this style of art is that it can all be created just by folding, such a simple task to create brilliant outcomes. 

Creating origami sculptures out of hundreds of sheets of paper is amazing, but creating interesting designs from a small piece of paper is incredible.

I decided to have a go at making a T-shirt using a dollar bill and a handy youtube guide
