Artist Makes Origami Inspired By Pop Culture

Louise Cassidy is an artist who loves creating paper characters. She has been into origami for about four years, and that’s when she discovered she could combine it with her other passion: pop culture.

“Whenever I see a character in a film or TV show, instead of concentrating on the plot line, my mind wanders into how I could recreate it,” Cassidy shared. “By using various paper techniques such as origami, crumpling to create a tree bark texture for Baby Groot or paper cutting tiny feather wings for Maleficent, I set about recreating them.”

According to the artist, the hardest part in the whole process is making the character identifiable. She also makes mini-animations by using a combination of origami and digital art backgrounds.
