Shadows Of A Dodecahedron

While a lot of artists in the 21st century move towards the digital medium, Yelena Filipchuk & Serge Beaulieu quit their tech jobs to make real world objects. Their love for geometric patterns and art led the duo to create the Trillian Dodecahedron Table Light. “[It’s] a limited edition homage/re-imagination to Sir Roger Penrose, a mathematician, theoretical physicist, and polymath that coined the eponymous ‘Penrose Tiling’ in which was the base for this geometry,” the artists said. ” He was the first to show how a 5 fold non-periodic crystalline tiling can tile infinitely yet have no translational symmetry.” I’m not really sure what this means but it looks awesome!
