Join us at SufiCorner for an afternoon dedicated to the sacred traditions of Islamic art.

Draw designs using the timeless formulas found in nature and many traditions throughout the world.

All equipment & materials included. Open to all abilities

Everyone will have their own drawings.

Using the traditional tools of compass and straight edge, we will re-create beautiful patterns from around the world and experience the language of symmetry in Sacred ornamental Art.

Geometry occurs in the art and crafts of cultures throughout human history, directly inspired by the rhythms and structures of life itself. Its principles are beyond time and place.

In this practical workshop, participants will investigate principles of symmetry and tessellation. These universal principles govern growth and structure and are found in both crystalline and botanical nature.

Adam Williamson A trained geometer and carver, Adam is drawn to particular shapes and patterns that can tessellate into perfectly balanced structures. His work focuses on universal principles found in nature through hands-on craftsmanship.

Adam has been commissioned by clients that include,

HRH the Prince of Wales, NYU, Spotify, Oxford University, Shakespeare’s Globe London, Kew Gardens, Westminster Abbey.
