Artworks

Origami Spider with Web The web is the crease pattern for the spider. The web shape has been simplified to an octagon with radiation symmetry. Each vertex forms spider's leg.

Dragon H has a small head with sharp, pointed tail. It has double wings on each side. This is his first complex design, because he loves the dragon which is the symbol for the year of his birth.

Sejin is also interested in aircraft like normal teen boys. He made this aircraft for his own toy. This origami F22 has big triangular-shaped wings with 3 wheels on the bottom.
