“Penrose” by Hybycozo is a remarkable sculpture that transforms complex mathematical concepts into captivating visual art. This piece reflects the duo's exploration of geometry, light, and shadow, creating an immersive experience that engages both the mind and the senses. Named after the mathematician Roger Penrose, the sculpture honors his discovery of the Penrose tiling, a non-repeating pattern with five-fold symmetry. Crafted from laser-cut steel panels replicating this intricate pattern, “Penrose” is illuminated by LED lights, casting dynamic displays of light and shadow that change with the viewer’s perspective. The interplay between form and illumination draws audiences into a deeper contemplation of the beauty of mathematical order and the complexities of the universe, merging science and art into a unified expression. It invites viewers to appreciate the fusion of artistic creativity and mathematical precision, highlighting the harmony found in both disciplines.
