<p style="padding-left: 90px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">      Origami is the art of achieving, by folding a single sheet of paper,the creation of a representation of various models such as animals, flowers, geometric objects, decorations. Origami can develop, through rational and progressive method, manual dexterity, accuracy and memory.</span></p>
<p style="text-align: justify; padding-left: 90px;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">The term "Origami" comes from the Japanese "ORU" which means "fold" and "KAMI" which means "paper". Origami is born with the paper, in China, 1 century BC. This art has survived the centuries by verbal transmission initially (this explains why only simple models have lasted) until 1797 when the first model was registered.</span></p>
<p style="padding-left: 90px; text-align: justify;"><span style="font-family: verdana, geneva, sans-serif; font-size: 11pt;">      One of the masters of the fold is undoubtedly <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Akira_Yoshizawa" target="_blank">Akira Yoshizawa</a>, père de l’origami moderne. On lui doit entre autre, en plus du nombre considérable de modèles qu’il a créé, le système de codification par lignes et par flèches qui est utilisé pour décrire les modèles actuels:the father of modern origami. He is credited among other things, in addition to the considerable number of models he created, for the coding system by lines and arrows that is used to describe the current models: the <a href="https://fr.wikipedia.org/wiki/Syst%C3%A8me-Yoshizawa%E2%80%93Randlett%E2%80%94Wikip%C3%A9dia.html" target="_blank">Yoshizawe-Randlett</a> system. Akira Yoshizawa, started origami in the 1930’s and is a true legend in Japan.</span></p>
