Amazing Origami Works of Art by Sipho

More origami, this time from Sipho, who is 27 and hails from Switzerland.

He has a variety of photos of his work on his Flickr page, most of which seem to be crustaceans. Here’s one of Fauno, from Pan’s Labyrinth (great film).

The presentation of his work really adds to the pieces, which have an amazing sensibility, probably because of the attention to detail and the texture he creates, through crafting the right choice of paper for each model.

More shots below.
