Ankon Mitra is an architect, landscape designer, and sculptor whose artistic journey unfolds through the poetic act of folding. A global pioneer of 'Oritecture'—his visionary fusion of origami and architecture—Mitra transforms materials into flowing forms that echo the rhythms of nature and the universe itself. His sculptural installations, crafted from paper, metal, stone, leather, and more, reveal the infinite potential of geometry and transformation. Exhibited across continents—from Venice and London to Shanghai and the Netherlands—his works inhabit public spaces and private collections worldwide. A TEDx speaker and educator, Mitra imparts the structural and spiritual beauty of folding at institutions like IITs, NIDs, and Anant National University. Guided by Plato’s belief that “Geometry aims at the eternal” and Tegmark’s view that “The universe is mathematics,” Mitra’s art is both a cosmic meditation and a material marvel—each fold a metaphor for creation, collapse, and the silent harmony between science and soul.
