Fractal Cosmos 2025 Wall Calendar: The Mathematical Art of Alice Kelley

English

By (author): Alice Kelley

Fractals are visual depictions of mathematical equationsthe same equations, in fact, that describe natural phenomena such as coastlines, plant shapes, and weather patterns. A computer program assigns a color to each point in the image based on the answer to a chosen equation, which then results in abstract fractal shapes. Artist Alice Kelley manipulated dozens of variable to create the fascinating organic designs featured in this twelve-month calendar. Each is accompanied by a quotation by prominent mathematicians and scientists.

About Alice Kelley

Alice Kelley discovered fractals in 1995 and began collecting other peoples fractal images. She was excited by their abstract beauty and the fact that such gorgeous pictures were created by math alone. Since fractals are actually computer versions of natural fractal phenomena like coastlines plant shapes and weather patterns they seemed to resonate with her because they do not appear to be artificial. Kelley began making fractals herself a year later and found that she was able to manipulate and color fractal images in an intuitive manner. Each fractal starts out as chaos and I find the pattern in it and that pleases me she said. Perhaps its a metaphor. So much of life and the universe is chaos and I can take a tiny part of it and make beauty.
