Spacing Out: Art and Topology Pop-up Museum at the UGA McBay Science Library is a special exhibition, coordinated by the UGA Department of Mathematics in tandem with the UGA Arts Collaborative, showcasing an exciting variety of student artworks inspired by and demonstrating fascinating objects from the mathematical field of topology. The featured works include fabric arts, ceramics, laser-cut wooden sculpture, 3D animations, and more. Spacing Out will be on full display at the Shirley Mathis McBay Science Library from November 6 - December 1.
Spacing Out was organized by mathematics doctoral students Alexander Tepper and Han Lou and Professor of Mathematics David Gay, with assistance from Lamar Dodd School of Art students and alumni as part of an ongoing effort to advance visualizations of intriguing geometric phenomena.
Professor Gay will continue to cultivate art-meets-math activations with the Lamar Dodd School of Art in partnership with Associate Professor of Graphic Design Moon Jang through a recently awarded 5-year National Science Foundation grant. For more information, contact David Gay at dgay@uga.edu
