A simple fold, a thousand words | Giang Dinh | TEDxIndianapolis

A zen painting directly captures the soul of the subject in a few brush strokes. A haiku tells a story with a few words. Can simple sheets of paper tell a story or depict a complex idea? Can some simple folds be worth a thousand words? Origami artist Giang Dinh shares his geographic and artistic journey to finding essence. Giang is a designer of simple and elegant origami art. He studied architecture in Vietnam and the United States, and found origami in 1998 as a way to create simplistic and striking pieces. Giang was born in Hue, Vietnam and currently resides in Virginia. This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community.
