The work titled PF III Factor Mural (after Fibonacci) consists of an installation of 20 hexagonal canvases. The color sequence of the 20 canvases is based on the Fibonacci system. The color of each canvas is based on the numbers in Fibonacci’s sequence, using violet=1, red=1, orange=2, yellow=3, green=5, blue=8. Violet starts the system even though it is often the last color within the R,O,Y,G,B,V color wheel. Through this mathematical process, organic-seeming images are created. Aquatic, astronomical, biological, and objects of decorations are suggested.
