Polly Verity

She is the daughter of artists, so she grew up in the setting where there was plenty of art resources to hand and was encouraged to experiment with them. She uses scoring and folding to create mostly frequent patterns that are abstract geometric. The paper fold is relieved into a shape by hand using a small piece of paper which is then undone carefully before it is then accurately recorded into a computer line drawing. Once it has been refined and tested, the line data is sent to a desktop cutter that cuts very marginally into the paper to score it then is folded by hand. She chooses folds that are beautifully photogenic and striking which is due to the intense effects that are generated when the light hits one of the pieces.
