About his work, which has been inspired from class-room teachings of geometry, Amit elaborates, “I have been teaching geometry for design at Pearl Academy for the last five years. Often while exploring the geometric concepts for classroom demonstrations and assignments, I come across surprising geometric forms and these two art works are the outcome of such explorations. These outcomes always intrigue me to keep my quest for geometry on.”
