I had a lovely , an Australian artist and innovator, who is redefining the possibilities of paper. Blending traditional origami with cutting-edge digital design, he crafts intricate, kinetic sculptures that challenge our perception of this humble material. Born in Perth, Australia, and now based in London. Darryl is a teacher, Apple Distinguished Educator, trauma-informed practitioner, and paper engineer. His passion for paper extends beyond aesthetics; he believes in its therapeutic potential, using it to connect individuals with the natural world and promote well-being. Enjoy our conversation!

Here’s an engineering feat using paper folding methods (bonus, it is a single-sheet design). I love what and product development, which echos what I say frequently to participants in my classes. “The work grew out of an earlier experiment with a folding structure that did not work�. but the ability to make informed mistakes can be rewarding.
