About this garden

The story

Mathematics are present in many aspects of nature, but even ifit is right in front of us, we might never see it. Just like a water hole hidden in a depression in the prairie landscape, you can spend days of years looking at the hirozon without seeing it behind tall grass. With the theme of "Patternsin nature" my design concept illustrates the hidden mathematics behind nature's beauty, like the Fibonacci sequence or the golden ratio symmetry or fractal patterns. I have used the metaphor of the 'water hole hiding in the prairie', to interpret my view of the mathematics hiding behind.
