THE PENROSE MONSTER
The Penrose Monster is third in the Pattern monster Series. With it, the artist ended his marriage to hand techniques. It is Orozco's first major work to be designed in the computer and cut with laser. Yet, its contours and convolutions suggest the work of Gustave Dore's orgiastic illustrations of dante, but its actual medium is the understated rubber stamp which can allude to the bureaucracy. Two simple stamps, with very simple matching rolls create a nearly unfathomable amount of possibilities of creation. Emerging power structures, the society as organism. This work is based on the discovery of the Penrose tiles by mathematician Roger Penrose in the second half of the 20th century. This two rhombs, when tiled, always create an aperodic pattern, a pattern that does not repeat itself ever as the tiles fill the plane. .
