Hoang Tien Quyết’s Rounded Technique
While most artists prefer to create stiff geometric designs, Hoàng Tiến Quyết decided to go in a completely different direction. He prefers soft rounded off structures. He creates these by using the wet folding technique. His designs are remarkable, cartoon-like creatures that looked both real and out of a storybook at the same time. He carefully rounds off the edges with a dab of water. Too little water and the paper dries before the folding is done; too much water, and the paper will rip. Quyết’s designs have garnered so much attention and acclaim that he has authored two different origami inspiration books.
