Symmetry

In my biology class, we were studying the process of evolution. In a homework assignment of ours, there was a picture of that showed a bird evolving into a fish; or it could be the other way around. I thought it was interesting and I researched more in the artist who created the picture. M.C. Escher is a graphic artist who is inspired by math to create art. Many of his art is symmetrical. I find that Escher's artwork is fascinating and beautiful.

  1. Evolution. I took biology class in high school and I didn't like evolution that much. Not only because I disagree with macro evolution but also because Darwin gave us another several chapters to memorize for the Biology test!
    I have seen many similar paintings but I never related it to evolution. Interesting view.
    So what do you think about evolution?
