This workshop will explore the spiral pattern, a beautiful and efficient structure commonly found throughout the natural world. From seashells to DNA, pinecones to sunflowers, hurricanes, waves, and the Fibonacci sequence, many natural phenomena share this winding curve structure. This workshop will combine art and science- by closely observing, sketching and art making, participants will sculpt organic clay forms, create a colorful collage based on the Fibonacci sequence, and make prints using botanical specimens including cabbage, cauliflower, celery and fiddlehead ferns. Cross-discipline connections are shared between art, design and science as well as the natural and human made world. Open for teens to adults.
