I haven't done one of these in a really long time. This is a reverse engineer of a tessellation by gatheringfolds (Madonna Yoder). She calls the design: Incendiary.
While I don't generally fold other people's tessellations anymore, every once in a long while, I'll get the urge to do so just for the challenge of puzzling out someone else's thought process.
The center was obvious to me right away.
It took me a little while to notice that the other key piece of the mystery was the three triangles around the open back hex. Once I realized that, it was just a matter of filling in the rest of the gaps with the remaining shapes.
First time I went to fold it, I used regular printer paper. That was a misjudgement on my part. This tessellation requires sturdy paper. Once I switched to tant paper, I had no trouble folding it.
My diagram for how I sussed it out is below.
