A floor in the Certosa of Calci
The floors at the Certosa di Calci (a monastery near Pisa) often have a 3D effect. The picture shows a wooden panel that reproduces one of these floors, while an overlapping 3D structure highlights the effect. Created at the Istituto d'Arte "Russoli" in Pisa for the exhibition "La matematica sotto i piedi", (Calci, 2005).
