Modular Sculptures
 
A modular sculptures is any abstract three-dimensional geometric modular design that is neither a straightforward model of a polyhedron or a kusudama. Modular sculptures can be simple designs made from just two modules or quite complex designs made from sixty modules or more, but in either case they are necessarily based on, and developed from, an underlying polyhedral form.

Many modular sculptures are good examples of partnership art, a concept that expresses the partnership that often exists in origami/paperfolding between the designer, who first conceptualises and defines the design, and the folder, who realises one expression of it at one particular point in time, so that both contribute in equal partnership to the finished work.

I also sometimes use the term 'paper crystal' as a synonym for modular sculpture. Paper Crystals is also the title of a book which contains folding diagrams for many of the best of my designs in this category.

Larger pictures of some of my best modular sculpture designs can be found in the Gallery of Modular Sculpture.
