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.

He wishes to bring back a greater tolerance for imperfection and soul as technology is pulling the other way with measuring precision of near infinite decimal points. There were a total of fifteen attempts in sketching the ruler as accurately as possible.

Each card contains a hidden wish, hope, or dream that is symbolically represented by a pair of delicate wings. When a card is bought, written, and given to another, the wings take flight and “come to life” — physically transported by air or sea as well as immaterially from the page into the mind and thoughts of the receiver. Card covers in these 5 emotions: sorry, thank you, congratulations, condolences, love.
