Apart from the central octagon, this writhing jaal Apart from the central octagon, this writhing jaali pattern is made from just three shapes yet has no repetition in the structure.

Much of the last year has felt like this, trying to find and hold my centre amidst the surrounding disorder (with varying degrees of success).

I had a blast exploding work all over my studio fo I had a blast exploding work all over my studio for the WCA 3D Lab discussion on Thursday with @locuscommunis and @wimbledonual (and it gave me an excuse for an overdue tidy up the following day). Always nice to revisit and reconsider old work and see how the dots are connecting as we move forward. 

Huge thanks to all who showed up.. great to see such an international audience and a number of familiar names, and most of all thank you to Ashleigh for putting together a really valuable forum for creativity and making, and for inviting me to participate. The talk was recorded and will be available to watch again in the next couple of weeks.

I know some folk were disappointed to miss this la I know some folk were disappointed to miss this last year so I’m pleased to be offering it again in February. I will be sharing new research into the Silver Ratio and it’s application in Islamic Geometric Pattern on this online course. 

Participants will learn to construct a master grid which provides the underlying structure for a wide range of patterns based on four-fold symmetry. We will draw 15-20 familiar patterns from various parts of the world, but this system also provides the key to many more related designs as we shall discover. 

More details below - full info and sign up from link in profile.

THE SILVER RATIO GRID SYSTEM
—
Four 2.5hr sessions on Zoom
Max 20 participants
DATES: Sat Feb 6th, Feb 13th, Feb 20th and Feb 27th
TIME: 2-4:30pm GMT
PRICE: £120 GBP

The Silver Ratio, though less well know than it's shiny cousin, has similar mathematical properties and hence can be used to generate a highly flexible grid structure.

After an introductory, contextual slide show exploring the proportional qualities of the Silver Ratio and their relevance to pattern design, we will construct a master grid using ruler and compass. 

Then we will construct a range of Islamic geometric patterns with a different focus in each session. Every pattern will use the same master grid for it’s construction, demonstrating how they are intimately connected through common proportions.

There will be a maximum of 20 participants on this course to encourage a more interactive classroom experience. 

Some previous experience of working with ruler and compass construction is highly recommended. 

Mattias Jones @mattiasjones will be moderating the classes and will be on hand to provide extra support during the sessions.

This is a live course running over four sessions. Classes are not available individually and participants should attend all four sessions as each will build on the previous.

Video recordings of the sessions will not be available, however PDFs will be provided to all participants showing construction of the master grid and patterns.

This Thursday I am pleased to be joining the 3D La This Thursday I am pleased to be joining the 3D Lab at Wimbledon College of Art @wimbledonual to speak about and show some of my work.

The event is free for all and can be accessed from this URL. Thursday 21st January 1500-1600 GMT. https://eu.bbcollab.com/collab/ui/session/guest/c0a3b30d9778446287f4546cd278c004 (sorry, you have to type it into your browser because I can't make it a link).

Join Wimbledon's 3D Lab online in talking to designer, artist and educator Ameet Hindocha about his passion for geometry. He aims to inspire the discovery of the traditional skills of geometric construction as fundamental tools for design and making in the modern world.

We’ll discuss geometry as a fundamental 'making literacy'; as the framework underpinning the physical world around us and it’s vast applications in design and making. Ameet will show a range of works to demonstrate his creative process and how tools and materials play a role in this. Drawing is at the core of his creative practice and he fluidly incorporates hand and digital drawing techniques to facilitate a deeper understanding of geometry as a visual expression of the universal language of nature.

Many thanks to Ashleigh @locuscommunis for inviting me to contribute to this series!

Studies exploring the icosahedron and dodecahedron Studies exploring the icosahedron and dodecahedron and their interrelationships via the decagon. One shape nested inside the other leads to the Kepler polyhedra, the stellated dodecahedron (right hand drawing) and the great stellated dodecahedron. I've included a couple of patterned 3D structures I've made. 

I acheived a state of maximum geometric satisfaction contemplating these forms and making these drawings!
