The Farmington Valley Chapter of The Links, Incorporated-Global Linkage
About this Event
The Farmington Valley (CT) Chapter of The Links, Incorporated invites you to Divine Geometrics, a special program exploring the artistic traditions of the historical and contemporary Islamic world from geometric pattern and calligraphy to woodwork and painting.
Presented under our International Trends and Services facet, this event reflects The Links’ enduring commitment to global linkage, building understanding and connection across cultures, faiths, and continents.
Islamic art’s geometric and decorative traditions trace a rich path across North and West Africa, the Middle East, and beyond. It’s a reminder of the deep, longstanding ties between the African diaspora and the Islamic world. This conversation invites us to explore how pattern, mathematics, and spirituality intersect, and what these traditions reveal about the shared human pursuit of beauty, order, and meaning.
Join us for an illuminating discussion with Hamid Hemat, Curator of Islamic Art at The Wadsworth Atheneum Museum of Art, as he guides us through the craftsmanship and cultural dialogue behind these enduring works.
