June 2026 Featured Artist: Sarah Haehn of Gamifold

Meet Sarah Haehn, our featured artist for June 2026! Here’s a short bio written by Sarah:

It all started off with an art kit, and then it turned into a love; The love of folding origami paper. My name is Sarah Haehn, and I create origami art. I have been folding origami for ten + years in the city of Rochester NY.

The folding process for myself started off being very basic. I would watch youtube videos to learn how to do basic folds, and instructional videos to make forms. Until one day, it just clicked! I then decided to try other forms, than just animals. I started to learn how to make different kinds of geometric shapes. The shapes, that are used mostly in my work are triangles and squares. These shapes are the two major components for an origami base. I tend to use brightly colored solid paper in my pieces, rather than patterns. I believe this gives the art more of an impact. I also enjoy trying new things within my art. For example, when I create an origami canvas wall art piece, I sometimes use other objects, like chopsticks, or spoons! This makes each piece unique and fresh. I tend to gravitate making things into mass quantities of origami and inanimate objects. I feel like seeing things in masses are very appealing to the eye.
