The Institute For Figuring started a collective project to crochet a coral reef, calling it “a wooly celebration of the intersection of higher geometry and feminine handicraft, and a testimony to the disappearing wonders of the marine world.” Here is a gallery of these beautiful handmade creations. Also see the Hyperbolic Cactus Garden. “Until the nineteenth century, mathematicians knew about

The Art of Willard Wigan
The sculptures of Willard Wigan might be overlooked, not because they are insignificant, but because they are so miniscule most can fit within the eye of a needle. These intricate sculptures, measured in thousandths of an inch, can be viewed through microscopes with a magnification of x100. They are painstakingly fashioned from gold, specs of dust, precious gems, droplets of
The Animated Sculpture of Gregory Barsamian
“In a darkened room I present sequentially formed sculptures on a rapidly spinning armature. A synchronized strobe light supplies the illumination. The images exist in real time and viewers are able to share the same space with them.

The Fractal Art of Steve Lareau
Steve Lareau of Hilltop Design is a fellow fractal artist who recently shared some of his interesting and strange fractal flames with me.

I've been slacking on my blog lately. My life has been crazy for the last month or so… my apologies. Lots of travel, lots of partying, making new friends, house repairs, art fairs… I haven't had time to work on my dragon either. Bah. Who needs sleep? I'm having a blast!

The Art of Richard Marchand
Step into the world of artist, Richard Marchand and you're going to be thrilled by surrealistic imagery that incorporates the human form into very beautiful futuristic scenes. Recently, Richard has been using Apophysis fractals to enhance the beauty of of his artwork.

This is NOT a Fractal
It's called Camera Toss, and the object is to toss your (inexpensive) camera while it's set on the slowest shutter speed to capture unique patterns that occur with light during the revolutions. Though they are not fractal images, they tend to look a lot like Apophysis fractal designs because the same basic principles are applied: A structure of light exists
