JAPAN
 Origami-the term origami came from “ori” meaning “folding”
and “kami” meaning paper. It is the traditional Japanese art of paper
folding, which started in the 17th century AD and was popularized
internationally in the mid-1900s.
 The goal of this art is to transform a flat sheet of paper into a
finished sculpture through folding and sculpting techniques without
cutting as much as possible.
 Origami butterflies were used during the celebration of Shinto
weddings to represent the bride and groom, so paper folding had
already become a significant aspect of Japanese ceremonies by
the Heian period (794-1185) in Japanese history.
 Flowers, animals, birds, fish, geometric shapes, and dolls are
the common models used in Japanese origami.
