This modular tessellation by Paolo Bascetta is so named because of the shapes that the rotating figures make. Here I've used 7 macro-modules, each comprised of 6-units, connected to each other with 12 special connecting units, resulting in 6 'runners'.
It's folded from a total of 54 bronze rectangles of red/black duo kraft paper. Each rectangle measures 50mm x 86.6mm. The overall tessellation measures approximately 174mm x 163mm. Of course, additional macro-modules can be added to the finished piece, giving an even more striking effect. Although the individual macro-module looks quite nice on it's own, a minimum of three macro-modules, connected in a triangular formation are required to see the effect, resulting in one 'runner'.
