Art in the Lobby Paper Art by Maggie Ramirez Burns
Can you believe it was all made with colored paper!
Most of us know about the Japanese craft of Origami, which folds paper intricately to create animals, but few of us know that there is an art form involving cutting paper. I learned of it in 2021 when I visited the National Nordic Museum in Ballard and saw the exhibit “Paper Dialogues: The Dragon and Our Stories.” There I learned that it is a thriving art form in Scandinavia as well as China.
