Fractal Cosmos 2018 Wall Calendar: The Mathematical Art of Alice Kelley Details
About the Author Alice Kelley discovered fractals in 1995 and began collecting other people's fractal images. She was excited by their abstract beauty and the fact that such gorgeous pictures were created by math alone. Since fractals are actually computer versions of natural fractal phenomena like coastlines, plant shapes, and weather patterns, they seemed to resonate with her because they do not appear to be artificial. Kelley began making fractals herself a year later and found that she was able to manipulate and color fractal images in an intuitive manner. Each fractal starts out as chaos, and I find the pattern in it, and that pleases me, she said. Perhaps it's a metaphor. So much of life and the universe is chaos, and I can take a tiny part of it and make beauty. Read more

Reviews
This calendar is simply awe inspiring and amazing, even for those of us who are a bit mathematically-challenged. I would love to learn more about that end of it, however just the incredible beauty of the art creates a perfect wall picture; the surreal art feels like it is alive and changes monthly. I can enjoy it and love it, even if I can't do quadratic equations!
