This premiere art exhibit of origami bronze, steel and aluminum sculptures is making its’ Southern California debut at the Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden on October 20, 2018 and continuing through April 14, 2019. The Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden officially welcomes Origami in the Garden², a series of large-scale metal sculptures inspired by the Japanese art of paper folding. Created by Santa Fe-based artists Kevin and Jennifer Box, the exhibition will feature installations, gallery works, and the Boxs’ own compositions as well as collaborative works with some of the world’s top origami artists.
Sixteen original displays will be showcased throughout the Garden including the following:
Flying Peace,
Crane Unfolding,
Nesting Pair,
Conversation Peace,
White Bison,
Star Unfolding,
Paper Navigator,
Rising Peace,
Botanical Peace,
Duo,

Emerging Peace,
Folding Planes.
Each of the sculptures in the Origami in the Garden² collection originated with a single piece of folded paper created by some of the world’s most noted origami artists, including LaFosse, Johnson, Robert J. Lang and Te Jui Fu. To re-create each piece for “Origami in the Garden²,” Kevin Box pioneered a unique process of lost wax casting and fabrication to capture the delicate details of folded paper in museum-quality metals.
“Origami presents a simple metaphor; we all start with a blank page and what we do with it is up to us,” said Kevin Box, creator of Origami in the Garden. “We created Origami in the Garden to inspire people with the possibilities of what can be created from one simple piece of paper.”
“We are excited to showcase Origami in the Garden², an outdoor sculpture exhibition of larger-than-life origami creations by Jennifer and Kevin Box,” said David Bryant, Manager of Communications.
“These incredible sculptures, many created in collaboration with world famous Origami artists, will transform our Garden’s landscapes and invite audiences to experience the evocative connections between art and nature. Originating in Japan and celebrated around the world, Origami synthesizes elements of art, science and natural themes in creating expressive works from single sheets of paper. The exhibition brings these concepts to life in the transportive beauty of Rancho Santa Ana Botanic Garden.”
Origami in the Garden is free with general admission. Related family activities, lectures and workshops will accompany the exhibition, including an opening weekend celebration on October 20 and 21.
