Origami Art of Brian Chan

American artist Brian Chan makes incredible origami pieces from a single uncut square piece of paper.

Chan is craft instructor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and completes his amazing paper sculptures in his spare time.  He said: "I started by copying work of other authors about 20 years ago but after a while I was good enough to start coming up with my own pieces. When I was growing up, my parents bought me a lot of origami books they start with simple models and then the diagrams get more and more complex near the end, so they are good sources for independent learning.”

He has now fashioned more than 100 unique artworks, from people, insects to jungle cats.
