Steve Worland, a self-taught paper artist from the United Kingdom, has dedicated his life to the art of paper plane sculpting, elevating it to new heights of ingenuity and artistry.
Worland's journey into the world of paper planes began in his childhood, where he discovered the joy of folding paper into aerodynamic shapes that soared through the air. As he grew older, his fascination with these simple objects evolved into a passionate pursuit of creating intricate and visually stunning paper sculptures.
