Elk is one of my favorite animals. I love the way it’s head and horns look, they are massive and spectacular. The time I started to design origami art, I’d planned to create one from an uncut square of paper, with all real details. At that time, about 2012, it’s such a hard time of my designing. I was lost in the mathematical methods of Origami. Sometimes the toughness prevented me from using math to make my dream come true. Then until 2015, after three years of pressurising myself under the academic science of the art. I came to realize that Origami is not only a science, it’s feeling and ambition. With the help of an old friend in the group of Southern Origami Society of Vietnam, he led me to apply feelings onto the paper, onto each crease. Someone has said that origami is art and math, but I think it is feelings, languages and life. I started to create the elk, from the very first creases of a very basic form- the bird base. I spread my emotion onto the paper. Not focus much on the math, but the real feeling of a lively elk. Then, horn after horn, I folded the head, it appeared out what was exactly on my mind. It had two ears, a huge splendid pair of horns, eyes and even a mouth. Using experiences, I continued on the body with every single part. When I finished test-folding. I drawed up the crease pattern, which is a diagramed way to memorise all the creases of a model. I started to make my own paper to fold it, from a large sheet of oil paper, I used a special solution of glue and chemicals so that it was stronger and thinner. After all, the folding began. I finished with the basic structure after 10 hours of folding. Which opened the hardest part, the shaping process. I looked at the pictures of the real elks on the internet. That’s a great deal. Also, I looked at the works of the other authors. Yet, at that time hardly anybody, to me, had made a truly lively one. I came to make an elk that is looking forward ahead, with curiosity and strength, which I think, is the final work after 3 years of planning, designing and folding.”
