The Secrets of Paper Engineering and Pop-ups
Taught by Matt Shlian
Ages 8-11, 15 students
Saturday, February 14, 1-3pm
In this workshop, we'll explore all things pop-up. We'll cover basic pop-up techniques, mechanisms, and folds which are the building blocks of moveable cards and pop-up structures. The various elements, such as the V-pop, Strut Fold, and Tent Pop, not only sound cool, they are the basic elements from which your creativity can, quite literally, explode! We'll take what we've learned and, since this workshop was scheduled on Valentine's Day, make mind blowing pop-up cards for our loved ones.
Matthew Shlian received his BFA from Alfred University in 2002, and
his MFA from Cranbrook Academy of Art in 2006. Currently he is
working with scientists as a visiting research scholar at the
University of Michigan and teaching at the School of Art and Design in
Ann Arbor. His work can be seen in stores around the country and
galleries all over the world.
