Kathleen Hyndman - Nature+Maths=Art

Further Information

The Mathematical Institute is delighted to be hosting a major exhibition of artist Kathleen Hyndman's mathematically inspired work.

The exhibition of drawings and paintings illustrate Hyndman’s desire to see nature and the world around her in mathematical sequences and geometrical patterns. Golden Section proportions and angles, prime numbers as well as Fibonacci numbers and eccentric constructions are all used to create works achieving a calm and balanced unity.

Born in Essex, Hyndman trained at Kingston-upon-Thames School of Art and exhibited widely in the UK and abroad, including MOMA Oxford and the Hayward Annual in London. As well as a full time artist, she was also a teacher and mother of two. She lived and had her studio in Kingston Bagpuize in Oxfordshire and had exhibitions at Zuleika Gallery in Woodstock until her death in 2022.

The exhibition is curated by Zuleika Gallery and Professor Martin Kemp FBA, and will run until the end of the year.
