About

Kashya Hildebrand is pleased to present an innovative visual journey that brings together art, music and geometry, revealing a compelling unity between the world of traditional Islamic art and Western contemporary composition. A Hidden Order, running from 10 September - 11 October, it is the result of a unique collaboration between artist and geometer Sama Mara and composer Lee Westwood. Together, they implement a pioneering theory developed by Mara and based on the scientific relation between sound, colour, and pattern. Their work draws on the fact that the foundational elements of geometric art are also the root principles governing the rhythm and pitch of music, bringing into focus the unexpected correlation between the artistic traditions of Islamic cultures of the past and contemporary mathematics such as fractal geometry.
