Art Youth Series: Studio Art through Art History – Tessellations

Week 6: MC Escher – Tessellations 

Discover the amazing world of tessellations with MC Escher! Tessellations are special patterns where shapes fit together perfectly without any gaps, like puzzle pieces. MC Escher was famous for creating incredible tessellations where simple shapes transformed into animals, birds, and other recognizable figures that fit together perfectly.

Together we will see how simple shapes can become fish, birds, or other creatures that fit together perfectly. This activity combines math and art in a way that’s fun and engaging for all ages!
