Hi there,
I’m Fabrice, 22 years old, computer science student, French.
For a most origamistic presentation, I started origami at 18 (so not a long time ago then) with a friend who told me: “fold the Joisel's rat from diagram”, so I tried and tried. It is not easy to go through step 15 when the most complex origami you folded is a lily you know
Then after one week of trials, I finally managed to do it \o/
I was so happy I folded it again and again. Then I tried Komatsu’s horse, with overconfidence for two weeks… without success, then I gave up origami for two month. Then a day I found the diagram on my desk and tried it without any hope… and it worked o_O
Since then I kept folding for a while until past two summers, where I folded the Kamiya's ancient dragon… I was then disgusted of folding too complex designs, and stays on my intermediate-high folds.
During this time I moved in Lyon, where I discovered the LUO convention, and I went there for the last 3 years. I also met Kaze (from the French origami forum) who came to my university a year after and with whom I fold weekly in my school origami club. He encouraged me to continue and to do my own designs, which are never complicated (folding a paper totally at random doesn’t lead to very complicated origami) and you can see some of them in my flickr, between some other author's folds
Then I’m here to share more with other folders
Cheers,
– Chouhartem
You had me at hello
