Fold-forming
Fold-forming is a technique of metalworking whereby metal is folded, repeatedly forged and annealed, and unfolded; at which stage it generally has a dramatic new three-dimensional form.
==Origins of Fold-forming==
The technique was invented in the late 1980s by Charles Lewton-Brain, an English-born goldsmith who lived and studied in Tanzania, the United States, and Germany before moving to Canada. Outside of the Industrial Revolution, the method represents the first major innovation in metalworking in thousands of years.〔Revere, Alan. ("THE INNOVATORS, PART IV: Charles Lewton-Brain: Goldsmith, Inventor, Teacher, Author, Publisher, Web Master" ) Professional Jeweller Magazine, June 1998, accessed 16 July 2006.〕 In the 1980s the technique of fold-forming metal was developed by Charles Lewton-Brain. Charles was a creator, teacher, and more. Ever since he was young he was interested in art and was inspired to pursue his interest in jewelry by his girlfriend’s mother.〔Isherwod, B. (2013). (Nature and Structure: The Balancing Act of Charles Lewton-Brain ). Metalsmith, 33(1), 46-53.〕 In 1974 he went to the Nova Scotia College of Art and Design where he studied jewelry-making and looked into metalsmithing. After his college career one of the NASCAD professors, Christian Gaudernack a Norwegian goldsmith, inspired Lewton-Brian to continue his education so he decided to go to Hochschule fur Gestaltung, an art and design university in Pforzheim Germany. Lewton-Brain worked as a part-time goldsmith to earn some money. During his time in the metals program he was instructed by Klaus Ullrich, a postwar metalsmith. Ullrich was the person that helped Lewton-Brain to develop the fold-forming technique. Ullrich emphasized to his students to comprehend the characteristics of metal in order to understand how metal forms. With this in mind Charles Lewton-Brain was able to develop his fold-forming technique by seeing the characteristics of the metal as it is folded, unfolded, forged, rolled, annealed, and worked on.〔 He brought about a new style of metalworking that had some connection to nature. His technique focused of the metals natural reaction to being hammered and heated. This shows his understanding of the metals elastic and ductile characteristic that was part of his learning from his postwar metalsmith instructor Klaus Ullrich. Lewton-Brian continued to teach his fold-forming technique to people at workshops and at Alberta College of Art and Design as the Head of Metals and Jewelry. He has been a part of this institute since 1986.
Lewton-Brain technique can best be described as a combination of origami and traditional metalworking. By 1991, Lewton-Brain was winning awards for the technique and in 1997 workshops demonstrating the technique were at the core of the "Touch the Future" portion of the JCK International Jewelry Show in Orlando, Florida.
