Outdoor sculptures often draw inspiration from local origami traditions, blending delicate paper-folding techniques with durable materials like metal, stone, or resin. Artists reinterpret traditional origami forms—such as cranes, flowers, or geometric patterns—into large-scale installations that withstand weather and time. These sculptures not only honor cultural heritage but also engage communities by transforming familiar art into public landmarks. For example, a city might feature a steel crane sculpture, mirroring the symbolic peace crane of Japanese origami, while incorporating regional motifs. By merging origami’s precision with modern craftsmanship, these works bridge past and present, inviting viewers to appreciate the artistry behind both folded paper and monumental design.
