Intersections: Math, Art, Truth, Humanity
Mathematics and art have the power to reveal truths—about the universe and about what it means to be human. Seattle Universal Math Museum (SUMM) is celebrating this theme with a public art exhibition titled, Intersections: Math, Art, Truth, + Humanity, jointly produced by SUMM and the Mercer Island Visual Arts League (MIVAL), with support from the City of Mercer Island (near Seattle).
Exhibition attendees are invited to experience mathematical “aha” moments, and delight in how 2D and 3D artworks can illuminate facts about individuals or societies, or otherwise emphasize the humanistic aspects of mathematics. SUMM’s website offers remote visitors a way to enjoy this exhibit and be drawn into viewing physical representations of mathematical concepts and phenomena.

Formerly a special education and math teacher, a tutor and educational consultant, a school-board director, and an instructor in the College of Education at Seattle University, she specializes in the concepts of math identity and promoting math as an accessible and equitable subject for all learners. Her interests include skiing, yoga, puzzles and traveling. She has a Master’s in International Business as well as a Master’s in Teaching. Her converging backgrounds in business, technology, education, problem-solving and adventure led to founding a math museum in Seattle.
