The Pattern of Movement

by Sophie Mueller ’11
“I map my life through the patterns of my art,” said Sophie Mueller about her Plan exhibition. “It is a reflection of my experiences, showing my movement through the world’s patterns and repetitions.” Sophie lived all over the world as a child, and during college traveled to Nepal and Ghana, where she became interested in the patterns and symbolism of Adinkra cloth. “Each piece is a reflection and reiteration of a memory in my life abroad,” she said.
