X-Ray Origami by Takayuki Hori Posted: 01 May 2011 11:05 PM PDT Japanese artist Takayuki Hori made a series of unique origami animal figures using papers with printed skeletons. The end result when displayed under the right light looked like x-ray images. Here is how he describes the creative process in make these origami: each translucent sheet is first printed with either the images of fragments of an animal's skeleton, or, on some pages, human-made discarded objects that are often ingested by the animals in the wild. using the ancient tradition of folded paper, hori assembles the pages into a three-dimensional model. once the paper is folded, the printed components are united as a whole, telling the visual story of the animal's plight to survive in an increasingly polluted and hazardous ecosystem. via: designboom.com Designer’s Depot: the best source for artists, designers and art lovers.
