Oritsunagumono ("things folded and connected") by Takayuki Hori.  The artist printed images of animal skeletons and discarded trash onto translucent sheets of paper, and then folded them into origami animal shapes. Hori folds each animal -- both bones and trash -- out of one uncut sheet of paper. (via Fast Co. and Colossal)
