The OSU Museum of Art is in a beautiful old building that used to be a post office. They have a small but heavily-fortified room that used to be a safe. Not such a great location to view paintings, but will work nicely for light-based sculpture, like "(5,3,2) triangle tiling", by @saulschSaul Schleimer and me. Museum preparator Michael King was testing the mounting system today and invited me along to check it out!

A doorway into the safe, with a pattern of light and shadow visible inside.

A 3D-printed sphere is patterned with triangular holes. It casts shadows onto the wall.

Closeup of the 3D printed sphere. It is mounted on a pipe coming down from the ceiling, which also holds an LED light.
