Inspired by the exhibition Anila Quayyum Agha: Interwoven, MathArtPlay presents a studio-style session focused on the historical and mathematical foundations of Islamic geometric patterns. Participants will engage in guided compass-and-straightedge constructions inspired by historical Islamic architecture while exploring symmetry, tessellation, and polygon construction techniques. The workshop connects closely with Anila Quayyum Agha’s work through its emphasis on Islamic geometric patterns, layered repetition, and geometric design traditions.
