Ingrid Siliakus:
"Paper architecture does not tolerate haste and will only respond to an approach of meditative precision"- Paper, Tear, Cut, Fold, Rip, Crease, Cut- Paul Sloman
Ingrid creates paper architectures, amazing 3-D structures that are inspired by the work of Professor Masahiro Chatani who created paper architecture- her architectural inspiration comes from the likes of Gaudi evident in her designs. The art of paper architecture is creating an object from one piece of paper. Before the final design is created up to 30 prototypes are created, layers of drawings are added until Ingrid is satisfied, each protoype is then cut and folded to her requirements. After the designing and prototyping Ingrid is ready to create her paper architecture, one false move (cut/fold) and the entire design is compromised.
Not only is the act of creating a piece of paper architecture a process of slow design but the actual designing and developments are too. The results are somewhat magnificant and awe inspiring.
