Ólafur Elíasson

Fivefold Dodecahedron Lamp

Olafur Eliasson's *Fivefold Dodecahedron Lamp* is a geometric sculptural light fixture composed of interlocking pentagonal forms that create a complex, symmetrical polyhedron structure. The work reflects Eliasson's deep engagement with mathematics, natural phenomena, and the interplay between light and form. As light emanates from within, it casts intricate shadow patterns into the surrounding space, transforming the environment and inviting viewers to contemplate perception and geometry.
