Art at Mun Su Sa

I said something in my class a couple of weeks ago about visiting a Buddhist temple in Wakefield along with a comment on the art. That was a mistake, of sorts, in that my teacher, Catherine, then wanted me to post a link or two (which means work for me). Anyway, my friend, Roy, has a flickr page where he has posted photos of some of the art work. His photo stream has a picture of the dharma hall with the hanging lotus lanterns.
 
Every year, they tear down and remake all these lanterns. My attempts at paper art never got past folding origami cranes, so I found the description of the lantern making process quite fascinating. Roy blogged the process in steps: one, two, three, four.
