ORIGAMI WORK PORTFOLIO

As a professional origami artist since 2014, I create intricate paper sculptures that transform simple materials into extraordinary three-dimensional art. My work ranges from delicate wall pieces to large-scale installations, each piece representing hours of meticulous folding and artistic vision.

Artist Profile

My unique journey from executive pastry chef to professional origami artist has shaped my approach to creativity. The precision and patience required in pastry arts directly translates to my paper folding practice, where both disciplines demand meticulous craftsmanship.

As a problem solver who thrives in stressful situations, I bring the same dedication to every project, whether creating a wedding cake or a large-scale origami installation. My mission is to elevate the art of origami without limits.

Through my work, I continue to heal, grow, and connect with communities, sharing the therapeutic power of creating beauty with one's hands.
