This course covers the fundamentals of paper structure and movements as a 3-D and 4-D way to illustrate images or ideas. Pop-ups, or movables as they are historically called, have remained popular since the 18th century, because the viewer is required to be an active participant in the process. Because the artwork develops as the viewer opens the card or book in which the construction has been placed, the viewer feels that he/she takes part in the creation of art.
