Kamiya has drawn inspiration for his designs from Manga, nature, and both eastern and western mythologies. The work can take up to one month to fold properly.
Perhaps his most famous design is Ryu-Zin 3.5, an elaborate dragon covered with scales and having feelers, claws, and horns. Kamiya began designing origami models in 1995, and has since published hundreds of his creations.
Known internationally to be a master of the craft, he began folding at age two. Satoshi Kamiya ( 神谷 哲史, Kamiya Satoshi, born Jin Nagoya, Japan) is a Japanese origami artist.
