Origami

Welcome to my site about ORIGAMI
Dobrodošli na moj sajt o ORIGAMIJU
Origami is one of my favorite things to do in my free time. I knew about origami even as a child, but only in recent years origami became my hobby, and more that I learn about it, the more amazed, curious and absorbed I get. I have many of my friends who are origami lovers to thank for revealing to me how beautiful and versatile this art is.
Origami je jedan od mojih omiljenih hobija. Još od malena sam znala šta je to origami, ali je on tek poslednjih godina postao moj hobi, i što više saznajem o njemu, više me opčinjava i oduševljava. Mojim prijateljima koji su zaljubljenici u origami treba da zahvalim što su mi otkrili ovu lepu i raznoliku umetnost.
I live in a country where people know some traditional origami models and teach them to children for fun, but when one wants to learn more he/she will discover that there are only few books about origami published here, most of which are long time out of print. They will also find out that one or two imported titles that can be found in bookshops are far too expensive for their budget and moreover, that these books are usually beginner level and similar in contents. Finding origami paper is not an option, because there is no origami paper to be bought. It is no wonder to me that I have only heard of few people teaching origami to schoolchildren here, but never could establish whether they still work with origami or whether there is an origami society of some kind in my country. If you do know about such a society, do let me know.
Ja živim u zemlji u kojoj većina ljudi zna neke od tradicionalnih origami modela i prave ih da bi zabavili decu, ali kada neko poželi da nauči nešto više ubrzo će otkriti da postoji samo mali broj knjiga o origamiju koje su objavljene kod nas, od kojih je većina odavno rasprodata. Takođe će otkriti da su onih nekoliko stranih izdanja koja se mogu naći po knjižarama veoma skupa i da su to uglavnom knjige za početnike i da imaju sličnu sadržinu. Specijalni papir za origami se jednostavno ne može naći u knjižarama. Zbog toga nije čudno što sam do sada čula da postoji samo nekoliko ljudi koji šire znanje o origamiju i to uglavnom prezentujući ga deci po školama, niti je čudno to što nisam bila u stanju da saznam da li u Srbiji postoji neko origami društvo ili organizacija. Ako imate informaciju o tome, molim vas podelite je samnom.
When I first started to do origami, I used to make animal models, boxes, cranes etc. I liked to make such models but I was never overenthusiastic about them. I think that my first encounter with modular origami made me feel the real excitement and enthusiasm for this art. I still think of me as a beginner folder. I have a goal to once make the model of five intersecting tetrahedra. When I do that one day, then maybe I will start to think that I have grown and advanced. I marvel all origami artists who create their own models and hope to be amongst them one day...
Kada sam počinjala da se bavim origamijem, uglavnom sam pravila modele životinja, kutije, ždralove itd. Sviđali su mi se ti modeli, ali nikad nisam bila previše zagrejana za njih. Moj prvi susret sa modularnim origamijem je u meni probudio pravi entuzijazam i ljubav prema ovoj umetnosti. Ja sebe i dalje smatram početnikom. Želja mi je da jednog dana napravim model koji se sastoji od pet isprepletanih tetraedara i kada to budem uspela možda ću smatrati da sam stvarno uznapredovala i usavršila se. Divim se svim umetnicima koji prave i osmišljavaju svoje originalne origami modele i nadam se da ću jednog dana i ja biti jedna od njih...
