I create systems for visual articulation of mathematics as a way to generate seemingly random patterns through form and color distribution, utilizing the grid, Pascal’s Triangle, and numbers pi and e. My signature process is crocheting fiberglass. I create my own cloth by crocheting continuous strands of fiberglass into flat geometric shapes, formed and hardened with polyester resin and use of gravity. Ready to expand my artistic vocabulary, I am slowly transitioning the math to 2D surfaces by looking for new systems of mapping sequences as I learn new material languages and look for my own voice in mixed-media drawings.
