Toying with Paper

Description

This program sees one of Japan's best paper engineers, Keisuke Saka, at work. Specializing in paper automata, Keisuke's works are darkly humorous and endless fun to construct. Meanwhile, Brian Chan in Boston takes origami to a whole new level of complexity, while Paul Chan fashions paper props from his workshop in Hong Kong. Although their creations are made entirely of paper, they are no more disposable nor less durable than any other work of art. And the fact that Keisuke Saka, Brian Chan, and Paul Chan are adults doesn't stop them from toying with paper.
