Hi!
I’m Илья Задорнов, a programmer from Moscow who is passionate about origami.
In 2021, I gradually started developing in this hobby, particularly inspired by IOIO competitions. For me, origami became not just a cozy, calming hobby but also an exciting creative process.
I mainly specialize in representational origami, but I also fold abstract models. And I don’t limit myself to specific styles. I like to experiment and improving my folding skills. I started folding with continuous stationery. Although its quality was poor, it was all I had at the time. Later, I began experimenting with gluing tissue paper. Initially, I used spray adhesive to create sandwich paper, which allowed adding extra shape to models. However, it wasn’t suitable for any complex models. For more advanced work, I switched to double tissue and rice paper, with double tissue becoming my primary material.
At the end of 2024, I started actively developing my social media presence and working on creating my own models.
Currently, I’m continuing to develop my origami skills, learning new techniques, and improving my craftsmanship with each model.
