Geometric Squares

Becky is back with another Square Challenge this January.

We’ll mostly be looking for shapes and lines, or anything geometric that has been created by animators, architects, artists, astronomers, carpenters, cartographers, designers, engineers, landscape gardeners, navigators, scientists, urban planners, and . . . . . Well everyone really as this branch of mathematics seems to be part of everyday life.

Beatriz Milhazes’s concept of “chromatic free geometry” balances structure and order with spontaneity, movement, and chance. She uses circles in her work, which can take the form of ruffles, gilded rosettes, beadwork circles, daisies, compass-drawn flowers, and rings.

If you want to join in either daily, weekly or just on the odd occasion then please visit Becky, the only rule is that the photo MUST be a square – that is four equal sides! You have been warned 😉

Heyjude

I have lived in the UK for most of my life, but when young I definitely had wanderlust and even ended up living in South Africa for several years which was a wonderful experience. I now look forward to a long and leisurely retirement doing what I like most - gardening, photography, walking and travelling.

  1. oh this must take her ages – wonderful geometrical art. I have some more coming up in a few days not quite as fabulous as this

  3. That’s the sort of picture you can look at for ages and keep seeing new details! Sorry to hear you’re still feeling rough though 🤗

    1. Yes, her work is very interesting. I’m getting better, but still coughing badly and I can’t concentrate on anything. Luckily I had scheduled these posts otherwise I wouldn’t be posting.

  4. Good choice, Jude. Parts of it reminded me of the old ‘Spirograph’ sets that were popular when I was young.

    Best wishes, Pete. x
