A collection with a collection

It is a story about collection.

when I made the collection about leaves, I did not have a very clear idea about the next step, but the situation was changed by the research of self-similarity in the last week. A collection with a collection, indeed, it was a good idea to convey this complicated definition in a very simple things, so I tried my best to realize it this week.

Then I made several collections use different material, color, content and shape.

Collection 1: 17 types of leaves in SOHO Square, including the photo, shadow, outline and sample.

Collection 2: Unfinished collection

Collection 3: Half-finished, different letter form of the word: WOW.

Collection 4: 11 maps of famous museums in England.

Collection 5: A Christmas card with collection of photos and memory. It also has the feature of self-similarity.

The fractal geometry in nature

As I did my research on everything about plants, there was a very interesting theory attracting me a lot: the fractal geometry in nature. This theory is based on a very complicated mathematics method and embodies in most natural substance, plant is one of the best examples of this phenomenon.
And there is another famous example of fractal geometry: the mandelbrot set.

This is a 3D model of leaves that I did to illustrate the fractal geometry in plants.
