ArtistJuho Konkkolacreates paper figures with the art of origami.
His creations dont use any cuttingjust foldingbut still result in amazingly detailed creations.
Konkkolas newest piece, and perhaps his most striking, is of asamurai.
But it still left me thinking that I could fold a better samurai.
In the fall of 2020, he decided to remake the figure.
I used the previous samurai as my starting point and I began to redesign its features one by one.
He started with a square 95-centimeter (approximately 37.4-inch) sheet of Wenzhou rice paper.
Then, he pre-creased the material to prepare the sculpture to come together.
you’re able to see how each of the parts develop in the folding process.
In subsequent photos, Konkkola shares how the samurai started to come together, bit by bit.
All told, the samurai took three months to complete from planning to execution.
In fact, Konkkola folded the character four times before folding the final one.
