Works of Seiji Nishikawa
This book contains origami works I created in twenty-two years (1977-1998). This period represents my lull life as an origami artist. All models bring me some good memories, so they are like a part ot myself. Among works in that period, insects were already published in Origami Insects (co-authored by Fumiaki Kawahata and Seiji Nishikawa , Origami House), so this book and the insect book are complementary to each other.
From the creator's point of view, works In this book are notable in two points. First, so many inside-out works are included. The inside-out method using a sheet of paper colored differently on the two sides is one of the significant characteristics of modern origami I myself would have a hard time if I did not use the inside-out method. Secondly, the flavor of my works are revealed in the very early steps of folding For example, the basic skeletal shapes of many works (like Crab, Giraffe, Lion, and Panda) can be already grasped after only a few steps at the beginning. Perhaps the early steps and outputs are one of the most attractive parts of creation of origami works for me.
This is the first book which contains only origami works of mine. However, creating a book cannot in any sense be my sole work The staff members of the Gallery Origami House, especially Mr Makoto Yamaguchi who took responsibility of all the editorial work, did a marvelous job of putting my works into one printed book. I would like to express my gratitude to them first of all It is also true that a book of this kind cannot be possible without origami enthusiasts all over the world, so I would like to thank them as well.
