~~<p>If you're a young person who has only recently begun studying math seriously, or a teacher looking for new ways to address the subject, then "Finding X" is for you. Here you will find explorations of geometry, infinity, fractals, probability and statistics, proportions, number theory and binary logic, all expressed through a range of artwork.</p>
<p>For the rest of us, the show will not necessarily change our opinions about math — especially if we claim to hate it. However, it can certainly open our eyes to the role that mathematical concepts, principles and disciplines play in fine arts.</p>
