Precreased a 4 pointed star shape with inward curving sides; then pleated horizontally all around it. This is one of the numerous possible shapes that arose as a result.

With things like this, a lot of wetfolding would be needed to get a smooth finished look- some sort of complicated clamping setup is needed here to hold things in place for drying. As such, this is not wetfolded, and so is not as smooth as it should be. I think it’s adequate to show the thought process, however.

A chain always reminds me concretely of its links. They make the whole chain. As well, by being linked, they are bound to each other. Each choice we make are at the same time a link to what we wanted or loved, and a binding as to keep that decision.

Una cadena siempre me recuerda concretamente a sus eslabones. Son los que hacen la cadena completa. A la vez, al estar enlazados están también sujetos. Cada decisión que tomamos es a la vez un enlace a lo que queremos o amamos, y a la vez nos sujeta, para mantener nuestra decisión.
