The title of this post is wrong. The project this post is about is NOT wrong. It’s severely right. In this project there are 10,000 that’s ten-thousand origami flowers, all folded by one guy. This guy his name is James Roper, and he folded these flowers over the course of three years. Every day he would fold an average of ten of them, which is smart, don’t wanna wreck your hands from doing repetitive motion, every day for three years. That’s intense. I mean it. What you’re going to see in the gallery below is only a few pictures, each of them showing a different composition of the flowers on the floor of a gallery. Oh so lovely.

James Roper is a multidisciplinary artist and designer and painter and paper craftsman and basically everything else you can imagine. I’m sure if he hasn’t already by the time you read this post, he’ll be showing up on WFDJ more than once. Really rockin stuff.

The project as a whole is called “Devotion.” The arrangements you see below are as thus: the big target is Devotion (mandala), the sun outline is Devotion (mandala swept away), and the snake is Devotion (degree show installation).
