“M. University”

This self-taught book-origami began in october 2009. Since then Isaac made many works of art. This craft takes immense patience as well as time. It takes 3 days for the simple styles to 2 weeks work for more complicated. Some projects require small cuts and some books may be sprayed to protect the color from fading.

Isaac is from El Paso, Texas, USA. Now he lives in Artesia, New Mexico. His latest ambition is to re-create brand logos he likes. Isaac’s inspiration comes from multiple things and places. For example, Isaac created the recycle symbol on a book titled “A World with out Trees”. Despite the artistic genius inside Isaac he spokes of himself very modest:
