Paper Weaving

Paper weaving is a craft in which thin strips or sheets of paper are woven together to create textured, durable, and colorful new creations.

In this class, we learnt how to do paper weaving.

Before doing the assignment, I made a mock-up to practice weaving the papers.

I decided to choose water and fire for my paper weaving theme. I painted the fire and water using acrylic paint on an A3 drawing paper

This is the result of my painting

Before proceeding to cut and weave the actual artwork, I made a mock-up of the artwork so that I can easily imagine how the weaving would look like.

During class, I cut both papers according to the shapes that I sketched.

Then, I weave both papers and attached them to a black infra board to hold the papers intact.

This is the final outcome of my artwork
