In Croatia, modern paperfolding or origami is at the very green and tender stage.
Presently I feel like a gold miner, on a river bank, sifting sands in search for a gold nugget - a true origami artist. There are people on both river banks. At one side there are lots of children and youthful grownups playing with paper, kicking and tossing it disrespectfully. They fly paper planes, sail paper boats, squash some traditional models. They mix kirigami and origami and oregano. Some claim it is the same as old folk paper crafts.
The other bank is steeper and harder to climb. There are few people there, scattered around, lonely. They love and respect what they do. They fold paper with clean hands and clean heart, as Master Yoshizawa would require.
Wouldn't it be wonderful to build a bridge, so that the people from the youthful side could discover the beauty and wisdom of true origami art?
