The objective of this work is to induce the attributes of paper in foils of stainless steel so that a public sculpture of origami can be folded with it. Origami is an ancient Japanese art of paper folding for fun. However, in the recent years, the figures folded by this technique have complex shapes and they closely resemble the objects portrayed. Nowadays, an origami artist has a choice with a variety of construction material with specific texture, colour and body. Origami has evolved to the level of sculpture (La Fosse, 2000) than merely a simple form of art. However, origami artists have not had a good experience of working with metal sheets or foils. Copper or aluminium based foils have shown rupture and dents, which cannot be accepted for display as a public sculpture. With an in-depth discussion with the renowned paper artist Paul Jackson, this project was launched. In short, the aim is to mimic qualities of paper in foils of stainless steel.
