A translucent cube that hides six images
Discussed/marveled at around the office yesterday, this cube is magnificent and wonderfully made:
If you're like us, you could sit and watch this for hours. But knowing how this was made makes it even more amazing:
The six fragmented paintings are spread across 216 laser-cut acrylic glass strips that are designed to perfectly align when viewed directly from each side. Each figure is cleverly contained within the same surface as its counterpart on the opposite side, and the object is filled with silicone oil giving it the look and feel of solid glass.
The link has more images and a video showing how it's made. It's well worth watching.
