This exhibition shows mastering of Hashimoto enormous space-altering installations, which are pieced together by thousands of thin paper sheets. Not only are his works brilliant pieces of art but they have a backbone of science as well. Jacob Hashimoto’s is made from 30,000 paper kites that come together as a room-filling installation. The installation of Jacob Hashimoto's Gas Giant took 25 days, seven people, and over 30 thousand paper "kites" lining the ceilings of MOCA Pacific Design Center.
