Mayfly


folded from an uncut square

A hardcore exercise in box-pleating. I thought the ephemeral quality of the mayfly makes it an appropriate subject for origami, and I haven't seen an origami mayfly out there. This was one of my entries for the 2005 MIT Origami Competition.

Folded from a square of "Bienfang" tracing/sketch paper.
