Twisted and Puzzling

My British friend, Ian Rowland makes some of the most baffling card origami in the world. Other than his professions as a performer and expert on deception, Ian is most famous for his Wow Cards.

Wow cards may elicit the word ‘WOW!” from your lips.

Card ReFlexions are folded in ways which seem impossible, counter-intuitive or magical.

Card FLinks are permanently linked to themselves, other cards or miscellaneous items in an impossible way.

Each Wow card is unique hand-crafted and original. Wow Cards have been exhibited at a London art gallery, used as 'motivational' aids and as spurs to creative thinking by executive training companies. Go to my link for Fridge Magnet – that’s how Ian likes to be referred to and view his gallery of creations. You may even think about how he does them, piece by piece. Enjoy his mind-vault of oddities!
