Origami

Japanese art of paper folding

Origami (折り紙) is the art and technique of folding paper. It also refers to the two- and three-dimensional forms created in the process. The use of the term has been extended in modern times to include other materials such as metal, textiles, and it is also used in the biological sciences to describe folded structures like DNA. Although the word origami has Japanese roots, the practice itself is universal and its origin remains unknown.
