Mangawhai artists inspired by in sequence of numbers Works by Pauline Mann will feature in Fibonacci: Math and Magic Four artists will explore the Fibonacci sequence in a new exhibition opening at the Mangawhai Artists Gallery later this month. The Fibonacci sequence is an endless series of numbers where each number in the series is the sum of its two previous numbers. The series is a mathematical way of describing how many things grow, including shells, cones, flowers, human DNA and spiral galaxies. Participating artist Mandy Thomsett-Taylor says the exhibition proposes ideas around design, pattern and logic that interest her.
