Abstract
First, I am exploring the possibility of a universal order implied by the relationship between visual order and mathematical order, and second, I am striving to precipitate in the viewer a visual experience that will evoke some sense of the intrinsic beauty of mathematics.
In the body of this paper I will explain these concerns. I will describe my views on mathematics, my investigations of order, and the elements and components of my work. I will define the personal symbolism in my work and correlate this to my spiritual perceptions. Finally, I will explain how I view the elements and symbolism of the work as a vehicle for .personal integration and synthesis.
