Patterns from around the world can be instantly recognised and related to cultures. This is not a project focusing on stereotypes per se, but rather identity showcasing the similarities and differences in our shapes and compositions in art and patterns.
Comparing the Chinese pattern to the Peruvian might seem like a stretch considering how far apart they are on the map, but we can clearly see having them side by side that the similarities are there—the strict square repetition of patterns based on boxes and geometrical patterns can be instantly found in both. Even in the vastly different patterns of Egypt and France we can find a connection in the use of flowers in pattern, where France is going for a view from the side of a Lily, the Egyptian pattern is a flower from the top view. We all might be more alike than be think.
