VERSION 4 (Ice crystals)They are the design of K. Suzuki and start with a regular hexagon piece of paper. Figs. 1 to 7
are the folding process of the latter; Fig. 8 derives from it. Both, 7 and 8 are shown in obverse and re-
verse.
Suzuki plays with the translucency of folded figures to create numerous versions of the basic
ones. The shade intensity on surfaces depends upon the paper accumulated in the folds. Figs. 9 and 10
show that light and shade effect.
When Suzuki faces a geometric folded figure, he studies in it three different ones: the apparent,
that which is produced by the translucency and those existing within the interior of folds.
