Origami giants take over Dubai’s skyline in new viral artist project – The National

Dubai has been reimagined yet again. This time, enormous origami sculptures tower high over the city’s most famous landmarks — including Burj Khalifa, Palm Jumeirah, Burj Al Arab and more — giving its celebrated skyline a run for its money.

The scenes are part of a new video, which has gone viral in the UAE, even being reposted by Dubai Tourism. The video’s creator, 3D artist Rohith Jagadisha, says he is shocked by the response.

“I never expected this at all,” says Jagadisha. “People really love it. But actually, this was something I did just for my daughter.”
