Math + Marine Biology + Handicraft + Community Art Practice= Hyperbolic Crochet Coral Reef = Love

  • About

    The Hyperbolic Crochet Coral Reef is a project by the Institute For Figuring in Los Angeles. The Crochet Reef resides at the intersection of mathematics, marine biology, handicraft and community art practice, and also responds to the environmental crisis of global warming and the escalating problem of oceanic plastic trash.

  • Exhibitions

    The Crochet Reef is exhibited around the world in art galleries and science museums. See here for the schedule of current and upcoming exhibitions, and for beautiful reports and images of past exhibitions.

  • Satellite Reefs

    In addition to the “Core Collection” of Crochet Reefs made under the direction of the Institute For Figuring, the project entails a growing collection of “Satellite Reefs” made by local communities in cities and countries around the world.
