Mazama

Mazama students blended creativity and mathematics to craft a truly captivating piece that celebrates the beauty of numbers in nature. Beginning with hands-on techniques like spin art and marble rolling, students explored movement, symmetry, and chance to create richly textured paper.

These unique papers became the foundation for their artwork, bringing to life one of the most recognizable mathematical patterns found in the natural world: the Fibonacci sequence. Through careful layering and design, the piece highlights how math shapes growth, rhythm, and harmony—from spiraling shells to blooming flowers.

By merging artistic experimentation with mathematical thinking, students invite viewers to see numbers not just as abstract concepts, but as a living, visual story unfolding in color, texture, and form.
