This week, we're exploring math in various forms of art. Monday and Tuesday, we'll be doing tessellations. Geometry plays a big role in art, and geometry is a branch of mathematics that studies different shapes. It's very visual. Here are links to some artists' wonderful works, and the slides I presented in class today!
Artists like M.C. Escher
Tessellation Database (tons of examples, and in Dutch if you need it!)
THIS JUST IN: Create your own tessellation by clicking here! It's kinda hard to figure out, but FUN!!!
