Interlock 5–I

M.C. Escher loved to depict grids of pentagons, which served Kubo Novak as a geometrical skeleton for this piece. The piece, velvety blue coated paper, is made up of 60 pyramids. This pentagonal pattern has a four-fold symmetry and can be derived from a square grid. There is a kind of tension between the felt square grid background and the pentagonal figures in front of it, which Kubo especially likes.
