ORIGAMI LEAF (SET OF 2) – KWODRENT
$25.00
The primary basis for the greeting card stems from the notion of ‘making’. It is something rare at this present day due to the instant availability of many things, both physically and digitally. The proliferation of mediums like SMS has reduced the process of conveying personal messages into mere seconds of semi-automated finger actions. Thus, the designer hopes to slow things down to bring back the joy [as well as pain] of creating something by hand.
