Tiled rhombs look like a zonohedron.
I wonder if all rhomb tilings could be made 3D. It's easy to interpret this one as a zonohedron

First layer is a harmonic perspective drawing where the 1st layer is evenly spaces circles overlapping evenly spaced concentric circles. Spacing for circles and the lines is the same so eccentricity is 1. This is a parabola
Second layer is the same but the lines are twice the spacing of the circles. So the eccentricity of these ellipses is 1/2.
Too many of the tags apply to this stunning piece, in awe... Wow
I enjoyed painting this 40x40 acrylic. Never got around to naming it.
Love this one personally, the longer you stare at it the more you learn about the structure
