About the Item

This piece titled "Omoplata 162 in Royal Blue" is an original piece by Matt Shlian and is made from hand-folded archival paper. This piece measures 27.25”h x 21.5”w x 1.5”d unframed. As a paper engineer, Matthew Shlian’s work is rooted in print media, book arts and commercial design. Beginning with an initial fold, a single action causes a transfer of energy to subsequent folds, which ultimately manifest in drawing and three dimensional forms. He uses many engineering skills to create kinetic sculptures, some of which have led to collaborations with scientists at the University of Michigan. Guided by wonder, his work is made because he cannot visualize its final realization; in this way he comes to understanding through curiosity.
