Description
Length of black and white printed textile, featuring a symmetrical, regular repeat pattern without rotational properties.
Created as part of series produced for the exhibition 'In Black and White. A Selection of Counterchange and Other Patterns' (1995) University Gallery, University of Leeds., and publication M.A. Hann and X. Lin 'Symmetry in Regular Repeating Patterns' (1995). Referenced in publication as Figure 3. Class c1m1. Described as "an the most straightforward type of geometrical symmetry in terms of analysis, classification and construction. Class c1m1 all-over patterns are characterised by a unit cell of the rhombic lattice type which contains a diamond-shpaed cell held within a larger rectangle. The pattern is generated by a reflection, at right angles to the enlarged cell, and by a parallel glide-reflection. Rfelection axes therefore alternate with glide-reflection axes. The enlarged cell contains two repeating units, comprised of quarter units at each of the enlarged cell corners and one full repeating unit within the diamond shape."
