“Making Math Artistic”
Recommended for Grades 6-8:Discover the creative ways artists apply mathematical concepts in
their works of art. From three-dimensional sculpture to two-dimensional works on the wall, students will explore ideas of scale, ratio, perspective, symmetry, and proportion. Let our galleries be a math laboratory where students can see math concepts at work!

North Carolina Common Core and Essential Standards Correlations:
Pre-Visit Key Questions:• What are some of the basic shapes and
lines that all artists can use in works of art? (Think: what geometric shapes can you find in a painting? What kinds of lines - parallel, perpendicular, horizonal, veritcal, etc… -?
• What can be the effect of playing with forms and proportions? (Think: if an artist uses all diagonal lines vs. flat horizontal lines. Or, if an artist exaggerates a figure’s features - ie: a larger head, or longer torso.)
