Sculptural Cubes Made from Pennies by Robert Wechsler

Artist Robert Wechsler creates amazing sculptural cubes by joining pennies in perfect orientation to one another. Joined at perpendicular angles, the coins create a lattice structure allowing tunnel like passages of light from certain angles. Robert says of his work, "I like working with pennies because they are so familiar. People are comfortable around the sculptures because they are made out of pennies, it'something they can relate to, it's something that they've seen their whole life."

  2. Robert Wechsler is definitely a genius! I wonder though if he ever uses any scanning software when planning the design of this amazing art.
