Excerpt from artist’s Impact Statement: “Algebra in general typically reminds someone of simply a class they took in school or just a topic that involves vain manipulation of complex letters and numbers. What I sought to introduce and emphasize in this project, however, was a way of visualizing Algebra, most specifically in light of al Khwarizmi’s contributions and conceptual developments."
