1. Aaron Studying Calculus, by Daniel J. Fairbanks Aaron Studying Calculus, by Daniel J. Fairbanks Chalk drawings; The subject of this drawing is the artist’s son, Aaron, working on his calculus homework. Aaron is a student at UVU.

2. Altar of Apollo, by Andrew Kosorok Altar of Apollo, by Andrew Kosorok Engraved glass; Glass sculpture; Legend reports that in BC 430, Delphi—home to Apollo’s Oracle—was threatened by a devastating plague. The people pled with the Oracle to tell them how to resist it, and she told them that the plague...

3. Anasazi Suns, by Michael Sussna Anasazi Suns, by Michael Sussna Digital art; Fractals in art; Fractal digital imagery is a relatively young yet already rich field. Though different from traditional art, this digital medium also demands a well-developed aesthetic sense. Mastery of an ever-evolving...

4. Black and Blue Ricochet Composition, by Gary Greenfield Black and Blue Ricochet Composition, by Gary Greenfield Digital art; Mathematics in art; This black and blue ricochet composition was generated by placing particles on each of the sides of a 16-gon, assigning them starting angles, and then letting each move in a straight line until it encounters...

5. Blow…Make a Wish, by Tammy Ballard Blow…Make a Wish, by Tammy Ballard Metal sculpture; Geometry in art; When I was a little girl, I believed that if I blew the seeds of a dandelion into the air and made a wish that somehow magically those seeds and my dreams could come true. Of course with maturity I understood...

6. Boil, by Mark J. Stock Boil, by Mark J. Stock Digital art; Fluid dynamics--Computer programs; Boil is a digital image from a computer simulation of fluid flow. The surface in Boil is composed of a set of connected triangles, each of which is defined by the computer as a list of three nodes, and...

8. David, by Daniel J. Fairbanks David, by Daniel J. Fairbanks Charcoal drawings--American; Artists often use geometry to create a sense of three-dimensional depth in a two-dimensional drawing or painting, and to give the composition strength through geometric lines and forms. The trapezoidal...

9. Dragonflies Four Fold, by George Hart Dragonflies Four Fold, by George Hart Wood sculpture; As a sculptor of constructive geometric forms, my work deals with patterns and relationships derived from classical ideals of balance and symmetry. Mathematical yet organic, these abstract forms invite...

10. Dragonflies Three Fold, by George Hart Dragonflies Three Fold, by George Hart Wooden sculpture; As a sculptor of constructive geometric forms, my work deals with patterns and relationships derived from classical ideals of balance and symmetry. Mathematical yet organic, these abstract forms invite...

14. Five Tetrahedra, by Vladimir Bulatov Five Tetrahedra, by Vladimir Bulatov Metal sculpture; Icosahedra; Tetrahedra; The icosahedral symmetry group has 60 elements – rotations about axes of order 2, 3 and 5. It has a subgroup of index 5 – the group of rotational symmetries of the tetrahedron with 12 elements given...

19. Golden Gnomon, by Doug McKenna Golden Gnomon, by Doug McKenna Art; Golden section; Fibonacci numbers; Golden Gnomon is a new, more accurately drawn version of a pen plotter drawing McKenna first made back in 1985. It is based on a non-periodic Ammann tiling, which is in turn based on even and odd powers...

20. Golden Spiral, by Jennifer Regan Bown Golden Spiral, by Jennifer Regan Bown Spirals in art; Golden section; Mathematics in art; The Greeks believed there to be three 'ingredients' to beauty: symmetry, proportion, and harmony. This perfect balance was dubbed the "Golden Mean". This perfect balance is something they aspired to in...
