Using light-sensitive photo paper, I made a pinhole camera of each Platonic solid. I folded the paper into shapes in the darkroom so that the photosensitive side was inside the body. I placed the resulting body in a white, translucent box with one side a mirror. I turned the side with the camera hole towards the mirror and then exposed it. I then developed the paper folded back into the plane, with an image of the body’s exterior appearing on the inner light-sensitive side. I repeated the same process with all the shapes. The original object and the image of it are thus one and the same.
