From January 2025 until March 2025 Michael Herbst co-organises an exhibition Shapes: Patterns in Art and Science at the EPFL Pavilions.
Our collection explores the richness of the natural and artificial patterns that surround us. Bringing together art, mathematics, materials science and biology, it highlights the shared fascination of scientists and artists with geometric, dynamic and symmetrical structures. The event is co-organised in collaboration with two fellow mathematicians, Hugo Parlier and Marc Troyanov, as well as help from colleagues in physics, biology and the EPFL Pavilion team.
For more information on the exhibition, see the EPFL Pavilions website.
