Andrew uses meticulously folded origami objects to create large scale assemblages. He tells stories of individual journeys and migrations of previous generations.  With his unique background, he draws on science and mathematics for his compositions and metaphors.  Fluid dynamics, planetary motion and weather patterns are often seen in his work.

His Migration Series works are generally colourful abstracts but Andrew has recently put his medium to the test by creating large portraits made entirely of origami cranes. His subject, Chinese icons in North American pop-culture.
