Statement
We enjoy creative activities on the boundary between Mathematics and Art. Sometimes we create artwork by using geometric tube design. The truncated icosahedron is one of the Archimedean solids, generalizations of Plato's regular solids. The soccer ball "Telstar" and the nano technology molecule model "Fullerene" are instantiations of it.
Artworks
This is a natural combination of two Archimedean stars which have horizontal and vertical double forms respectively.
