About Midori Furze

I am a Japanese-born, Sydney-based multidisciplinary artist and I am an active participant in the local art community. As well as exhibiting my works in a number of group and solo exhibitions, I often run origami workshops and community origami projects.

How small can you fold?

Children are amazing!

I love visiting schools and school holiday care centres.
We always have fun and some kids are amazing.
For today’s workshop, I brought different-sized paper.

The smallest I brought was 3x3cm.
But some children kept challenging themselves smaller and smaller!

Such amazing talented kids and everyone has crowded around and cheered them.

Looking forward to seeing them again soon.

Midori’s exhibition

Japanese Ink Drawing Exhibition

at Kyushu Japanese Restaurant (9-11 Grosvenor St Neutral Bay. The restaurant opens 12noon till late on Tuesdays to Fridays. 12noon to 3pm on Saturdays. Close on Sundays & Mondays. The exhibition can be viewed during the restaurant’s opening hours.)

Sumi-e is the Japanese art of black ink drawings on thin Japanese papers.
Inks can’t be erased from the paper once you apply it and the rhythm of the strokes are very important as well as the colours and the sizes of the strokes.
