This is a artwork from China. It call papercutting. This artwork is used also in bridal chamber(The house or room the new couple live) or wedding. It show not only most artworks from China is symmetry, but also the Chinese word, which is in the middle of this artwork is also symmetry.
This is very interesting. The handmade basket weaving crafts in Uganda also incorporate symmetry. They are used as household items functional art to store items.
This blog explores symmetry types as manifested in mandalas and border patterns, in the streets of Manhattan, and beyond. It is for students in Professor Kirby’s classes, and anyone else who’s interested in spinning out the mathematical ramifications of mandalas and border patterns.
