Armen Agop (born in 1969 in Cairo) is a contemporary Egyptian artist. He is known for his spiritually charged contemplative works, which were described to reminiscence the harmony, balance and purity of the human soul. Agop engages meditative practices in his processes, prioritizing inwardness and inner monumentality. Soberness, slowness and renouncement of demonstrative abilities, are features that characterize his ascetic approach.

Looks like something you'd see in a math textbook. I have one in the shelf called "An Atlas of Functions" that probably has this haha

Yep and I love how it's placed in a shallow black pool to create the perfect reflection.
