There's something therapeutic about folding a sheet of paper and turning it into a boat, or a crane. If you're among those who enjoy origami but want to learn to create more complicated structures, sign up for a modular origami workshop this weekend.
Modular origami, unlike simple origami, involves creating multiple 'units' using single sheets of paper, then interlocking them (without using glue or thread) to create one complex sculpture.

The session will be conducted by Neha Parikh, a graduate of JJ School of Art. "I've been doing origami since college. Usually, I conduct workshops on Warli and Madhubani art, but this is the first time I'm holding one on modular origami," says the Ghatkopar resident.

Over two-and-a-half hours, Parikh will teach participants to make four to five different types of pieces, after first introducing them to the concept and the techniques.

"We'll start with origami structures that use two to six units. Polyhedron origami is a good place to begin," she assures. The 31-year-old shares that modular origami is meant only for those who have patience in heaps. "You're required to make several pieces of the same type of unit, and then spend time putting them together. It can get quite cumbersome but the end result is worth it."
