Division of the Square series

Elliott worked on the Division of the Square series over a period of several years from the late 1960s to the early 1970s. Each work is based on a formula that he painstakingly developed as the series evolved. His organized, mathematical approach results in work that challenges the viewer to discern the patterns.
