ART ANALYSIS

"My work explores the beauty of mathematics and its relationship with the world around us. Math is omnipresent, from the enormous structure of a galaxy to that of a mere snowflake. Everywhere we look, math exists. My work highlights the universality of math, in appreciation of the complex beauty of mathematics in the natural world."
