HYBYCOZO‘s (The Hyperspace Bypass Construction Zone) sculpture Dodi was installed on June 29th, 2020 at 169 State Street in Los Altos. It was leased for six months until a commissioned work, Mandahlia, could be completed and permanently installed at the same location. 

Dodi was part of a series of large scale installations and artworks by HYBYCOZO that investigates geometric exploration through light, shadow, and perception. The piece was composed of overlapping circles forming petal shapes and represented the creation of beauty through unity, a sum greater than the parts. The sculpture was inspired by the geometry of the flower of life, a symbol found in almost every ancient culture in the world, in plant and flower growth, as well as in the growing embryo during cell division. Dodi, a 6 and a half foot-tall dodecahedron, is a 12-sided shape composed of repeating pentagons. It was illuminated from within, with colored LED lights that produced intricate patterns on the ground surrounding the artwork. 

HYBYCOZO consists of artists Yelena Filipchuk and Serge Beaulieu plus an assortment of expert fabricators, handlers, installers. HYBYCOZO creates, fabricates, and installs artwork throughout the world.
