Sipho Mabona

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Sipho Mabona is a Swiss origami master. Mabona was the first-ever foreigner to have his work grace the cover of the official magazine of the (JOAS) Convention in 2008.[citation needed] Mabona was commissioned by an advertising agency to create an origami stop motion video for Japanese sports brand ASICS. The video won a Grand Prize at the Eurobest, gold at the New York festival, gold at the London International Awards, silver at the Clio in Miami and two times bronze at ADC Germany.[1] He has made large origami models on display, for example, a giant origami elephant which he live streamed. He raised US$25,000 to make it. He has also designed other animals, including a swallow, a rhino, and a crab, all folded from one square sheet of paper. He also designs models folded from money and papers with other dimensions, such as the origami locust, folded from a single dollar.
