Check out these origami pieces by Virginia-based artist, Vietnamese
Dinh Truong Giang.
Dinh lost everything, including the origami books his parents bought him after the war ended in Vietnam in 1975. He found the same book in a bookstore after migrating to the US and started folding again.
After about 2 years folding from books, he proceeded to create original origami models.
