sculpture can serve as a powerful tool to overcome creative blocks and reignite inspiration.
Whether struggling with writer’s block, a lack of ideas, or the pressure to innovate, this hands-on
workshop demonstrates how engaging in tactile, meditative processes like origami and paper
sculpture can unlock new ways of thinking.
Using simple materials and techniques, attendees will learn to create unique paper forms that
encourage mindfulness, focus, and the flow of fresh ideas. The course will also highlight the
parallels between the iterative process of folding and the journey of idea development in
scientific research, emphasizing the importance of experimentation, flexibility, and patience.
No prior artistic experience is necessary; just bring an open mind and a willingness to explore! By
the end of the session, participants will leave with their own paper creations and actionable
strategies for navigating moments of creative stagnation in both academic and professional
pursuits.
