Origami Tessellation Molecules

Been waiting a while for the right clouds and wind direction to take this shot, the recent weather definitely played ball!!
Hands & Molecule Sculpture, designed by David Barnes, and commissioned by Pfizer. The sculpture was unveiled in 2000 to mark the opening of the National Cycle Network (Route 15) in Thanet. Situated on the West Cliff Ramsgate, overlooking Pegwell Bay.

I'm still looking for "new" possibilities within the "Blocks-pattern".
I added a few more diagonals and then this molecule was born.
Folded it from a piece of yellow vellum (15x15cm), because you can see the creases so nicely ;-)

ist ein Berliner Monumentalkunstwerk, das im Mai 1999 vom amerikanischen Bildhauer Jonathan Borofsky geschaffen wurde. Es handelt sich um eine Drei-Personen-Skulptur, die in der Spree zwischen Elsenbrücke und Oberbaumbrücke nahe dem Schnittpunkt der drei Ortsteile Kreuzberg, Alt-Treptow und Friedrichshain aufgestellt wurde.
Remember I told you I was going to connect my origami 'Butterfly"--molecule?
Well, this is one way of folding it and I call it "Connection 2".
Here you can see "Connection 1".

Folded from a white sheet of glassine, about 30cm, grid 1:96. Final result is about 19cm.
For the photo I used another red sheet of glassine, to create a colored backlight.

Remember I told you I was going to connect my origami 'Butterfly"--molecule?
Well, this is one way of folding it and I call it "Connection 1". If you look closely you will see a "strange" kind of symmetry.
It is a first step, but I liked the pattern that emerged, so I made a picture from it, before folding it to a first possible other, more definite, tessellation pattern, as you can see here.

Another idea of altering my origami-tessellation 'Flower-Star' is to move the pattern and create a new centre, which gives new possibilities, using the same pattern. Hope it makes sense what I write….;-)
This is just a little tessellation to see if my idea would work. I call this molecule "Interweave".
This is how the other side, called "Arrow" looks like.
Folded from a hexagon 15x15cm, 'Anett-Paper', grid 1:32

One molecule of a new origami tesselation pattern, looks like a butterfly ;-))

The continuing folding-story of my "Butterfly-molecule".
I multiplied my Duet-pattern 3 and the other frontside in a small hexagon to explore the possibilities before I will fold a definite big version. When I started to fold the pattern, I noticed that this thicker paper got a bowl shape, so I decided to leave it like this.
On the left you see the real color of the paper I used and on the right I changed the color and also made a bowl. It is only one piece, but I cannot decide which one is the outside or the inside, they are both beautiful. And I call them "Day" and "Night" .

Molecule Man is a series of aluminium sculptures, designed by American artist Jonathan Borofsky, installed at various locations around the world, including Germany and the United States. Borofsky made the first Molecule Man sculptures for locations in Los Angeles in 1977 and 1978.

Ich bin hier, weil ich hier hingehör
Von Kopf bis Fuß bin ich verliebt
Du bist mutig, weil du mir Treue schwörst
Zwischen all den schönen Souvenirs
Sprich mich an, in dem Takt
Der dieses Lied zu uns'rem Hit macht
Brich den Beat mit Gefühl
Du bist so schön, weil du lachst
Uh uh hu
Uh uh huu uh huu uh huu
Mein Herz tanzt
Uh uh hu
Und jedes Molekül bewegt sich
Glaubst du wie ich daran, dass alles gut sein kann?
Solange wir zusammen sind?
Brich das Eis, mit dem Schritt
Der jedes atmen zum Wagnis macht
Halt mich fest, mit Gefühl
Es ist so schön, wenn du lachst

Molecule Man - Jonathan Borofsky
This was shot in Berlin with a Sony RX100M2 and a gray filter using a tripod exposing for 30 seconds. I used the free App “snapseed” to do some editing like black and white and some vignetting.
Molecule Man is a series of aluminium sculptures, designed by American artist Jonathan Borofsky, installed at various locations in the world, including Berlin, Germany, and Council Bluffs, Iowa, USA.
The first Molecule Man sculptures were made in 1977 and 1978 in Los Angeles, USA. The sculptures consist of three humans leaning towards each other, the bodies of which are filled with hundreds of holes, the holes representative of "the molecules of all human beings coming together to create our existence".
