After 25 years of military service, Ilan Garibi retired at the rank of lieutenant colonel and decided to change his life's course. Today, he is a full-time origami artist and instructor, specializing in origami tessellations, with around 200 original models. Garibi is one of the very few people who can fold metal into a tessellation as well as wood, fabric, glass and much more.
Garibi has been teaching origami for industrial designers at the Holon Institute of Technology for the last five years. He is also the founder and CEO (volunteering) of OrigamIsrael, the promoter and manager of the first-ever international convention for origami creators - CfC (July 2016, Lyon), co-editor of the Origami USA online magazine and the author of "Origami Tessellations for Everyone," presenting instructions for 30 of his original models.
