Design by George W. Hart: Cagework 1.
Hart: "If you want to conceptualize the form, a good starting point is the soccer ball. There are thirty seams where two white hexagons are adjacent. Under each of the thirty hexagon pairs create one S form. The precise union of thirty S-parts forms the sculpture. Notice how five parts form a ring surrouding each of the twelve black pentagon openings. Three parts twist together to make a vortex under each white hexagon."
This model contains some differences with respect to George Hart's orginal work of art: http://www.georgehart.com/sculpture/cagework1.html
In particular the use of colors is different.
