Maths and Art - symmetry and shapes in art and nature
Suitable for ages 10+
For Maths Week Scotland we are running a series of talks from STEM Ambassadors linking Maths to art and music.
Dr Elizabeth Dombi is a teaching fellow in Mathematics and leads this session looking at symmetries in art and nature.
She will demonstrate how to create beautiful symmetrical shapes and patterns using only straight lines.
This free talk is suitable for ages 10+ and practitioners who want to learn a new activity, available to all UK settings. The talk will be available as a recording after the event for anyone who has registered.
