A event held at KIT FORM on Saturday 6th July. The event starts at 14:00.
An expert in Islamic design, Ameet will deliver a public talk on Islamic Geometric Design, a traditional artform which explores the intersection of mathematics, art, craft and architecture.
Ameet Hindocha is an artist, designer and educator with a degree in Graphic Design, specialising in the creative exploration of geometry, with a particular focus on Islamic geometric design.
This event is part of APERIODIC, a festival of art, science, music and performance taking place this summer in Bristol. The theme is the mathematics and science of ‘aperiodic order’: the absence of regular or repetitive patterns.
Or, more simply, ‘things that almost repeat, but not quite’.
