pervasive in its appearance throughout nature. The “mathematically challenged” may
be more interested in the appearances of Phi in nature, its application to art,
architecture and design, and its potential for insights into the more spiritual aspects
of life, but letʼs begin with the purest of facts about Phi, which are found in

UNEXPECTED
In the West, we use numbers to represent things, mathematical and geometric—even
to symbolize space, order, movement or tension, but numbers hardly express other
conditions of what is vital and human.
Working, intervening in the exterior of an object-space, geometrically perfect, Working, intervening in the exterior of an object-space, geometrically perfect,
prompted me to play freely with leather, seeking to redefine the notion of proportional
perfection, to transform it into something living. hoping that the subject comes alive.
The pursuit of balance has always been a goal of human societies and of geometry; The pursuit of balance has always been a goal of human societies and of geometry;

and is part of us, like the reflection of a greater, boundless universe.
