Encaustic monotype with tessellation fold.

12x18"

Miura Ori is the best-known and most used origami corrugation. The folded pattern is named after Koryo Miura, who later designed a variant for folding solar panels on Japanese space probes. Simpler tessellations have been known since the 16th century.

I have been using tessellations for several years now. I animate and add dimension to the flat prints by folding my encaustic monotypes into lyrical sculptures. The undulating angles and geometric forms twist and bend the printed patterns.
