1000 Origami Giraffes Bring Color, Creativity to School Lobby

On the art gallery circuit in Bethesda and Chevy Chase, there's one stop that's not to be missed: the lobby of Bethesda-Chevy Chase High School .

Enter the lobby and look up—1,000 colorful origami giraffes cover a 50-foot span, each giraffe hand-crafted by B-CC sophomore Maeve White.

White was inspired by the Japanese legend of crafting 1,000 paper cranes (to make a wish come true, so the legend goes), but she chose giraffes instead of cranes "because I wanted to do something different and make it mine."

"Also, I feel as though they could represent teenagers—beautiful and awkward at the same time, and always reaching for something," White added.

White spent about 100 hours (over four months) making the giraffes. Taping them in place to a 50-foot-long roll of paper took about 20 hours. The installation fulfilled a school project requirement.

The giraffes will not remain up for long. When they come down, White will try to find a place to hang the giraffes up in her house, "but I'll probably have to cut it up a bit," she added.
