About this event
Presented by the BU Arts Initiative, BU Department of Mathematics & Statistics, and BU Art Galleries, Mathemalchemy is a multimedia art installation that celebrates the creativity and beauty of mathematics.
Join members of the Mathemalchemy Team, artists, and math educators for a fun and educational exploration of the exhibit. The day will include hands-on activities for family members of all ages.
Mathemalchemy is an art installation conceived by Duke professor Ingrid Daubechies and Canadian fiber artist Dominique Ehrmann. A core team of 24 artistic mathematicians and mathematical artists, including Boston University professor Li-Mei Lim, came together to develop and fabricate the exhibit, which invites viewers into a beautiful and playful world of mathematics. Through a variety of mediums and several narrative scenes, Mathemalchemy resonates with viewers on many levels and shows them that anyone can be a mathematician.
