(1/?) Patterned Penrose Pentagon thread

I submitted this picture to the 2021 JMM Art Exhibition with the following description:

‘This year, Sir Roger Penrose won a Nobel Prize in physics for his work involving black holes. This piece is intended to be a general celebration of his work.

It consists of an impossible shape referred to as the Penrose Pentagon, which appears to be patterned with an Penrose rhombus tiling. In actuality, the tiling has been done over a large area, but is only visible through the strategically-aligned impossible shape, with shading providing the illusion of depth.

Last year the “shadow” of black hole at the center of galaxy M87 was “photographed” using the Event Horizon Telescope. Strangely enough, one can almost see a pentagon there. I have used a similar colour palette to tint this pentagon.’

The inner joining angle between spirals was wrong, I fixed it by adding another inner pentagon

I made this a few years ago. I am posting it today in honour of Sir Roger Penrose’s birthday.

This is a link to a Twitter Moment that I set up 4 years ago about my investigations related to “The Creature” (which itself came into being more than 3 decades ago).

Does this look like a to you? Or could it be a of trapezoids and triangles?
