Lorenzo Duran makes beautiful art on leaves
Spanish artist Lorenzo Duran makes beautiful art on leaves. I have seen a lot of stencils and cut-out art on paper, but Duran’s works on leaves are on a whole different level.
He goes through a long process of picking, washing, drying and pressing the leaves until they are finally ready to be cut into intricate designs.

Between The Folds: a remarkable film about origami
I’ve watched this documentary several times and never get tired of it. It came out last year, but if you have not had the pleasure to experience it, go ahead and look for it. Not only are the origami sculpture pieces shown jaw dropping, but I am mesmerized with Erik Demaine’s theory in which the folding of origami can be compared to the folding of proteins and could be used in the future to cure diseases.
