Froebel’s first gift: balls of yarn. Sensory experiences of lines, loops, crossings, insides, boundaries... all lures into geometry

For when you need to make a straight line on the board: unroll the string from the device, which coats it with chalk, pin to board and give the string a quick tug. Ta da! Who needs rulers anyway?

Desirée Patterson uses geometric transformations of photographs—anamorphic like—to explore human impact on nature. See her Anthropocene art at the King Edward station!
