About the Item

Technique A combination of several techniques that cause the metal to behave like paper and takes the form of a unicorn combined with hand painting, spray paint, airbrush and several other techniques of painting with a crystal finish Explanation At a Friday evening I was with my niece, an amazing girl named Orpaz, and I taught her how to fold a paper swan Then she asked me "Uncle Shimon, do you know how to make a unicorn? " "I told her "I don't know but I will learn how and I will do it for you , And this is where the idea was born to make a unicorn using the metal folding technique After a long process the unicorn stood beautiful and magnificent . I didn't know what I wanted to convey what emotion I wanted the viewer to experience when looking at it , ,Then Orpaz suddenly arrived and entered into my house "She smiled a huge smile and said "Wow wow unicorn, it's a unicorn, it's amazing And at that moment I knew that this is the experience I want the viewer to experience, this excitement that children hold and we adults tend to forget it a little In every choice of shade, in every stroke of a brush, in every moment when I worked on the piece Orpaz's words rang in my ears , I tried to draw, see, and convey to you the unicorn through the eyes of Orpaz.
