Japanese origami master Hatori Koshiro famously described the art form as an exercise of revealing, through folding, the nature of paper that lies within it. This philosophy frames origami as a process-oriented practice, attending as closely to the act of making as to the form that emerges.
Such processual tenor inspires the conceptual underpinnings of Filipina artist Ayka Go’s pre/form, her first solo exhibition with The Drawing Room. Conceived by the artist as a return to simpler forms, this show finds her revisiting the foundation of her material, method, and ethos by reflecting on her affinity with paper—precisely in the histories and possibilities that lay within its folds and creases.
