This origami art was created for an editorial piece in the men's magazine 'Esquire'. I think its a really interesting piece of work regarding origami as the artist has made natural forms into something so structured and man made, however the forms of the models have been constructed so well they are instantly recognisable as prehistoric animals. Also the artists has 'brought back to life' extinct species by craft and placed them into very natural scenes, recreating what was once there. I think this idea of man being able to recreate and build to anyones desire is very relevant of today's society especially when thinking about contemporary technologies and the depth into which we can take and access things. It is also visually pleasing and i enjoy the contrast between natural and made made, it has given me ideas about photographing my origami pigeons and perhaps where i could take the project next.
