Inspired by Sophie Germain
My design is an hommage to Sophie Germain,
the first female mathematician. Her life and
her work inspired me as she never let somebody
dissuade her from the fascination of mathematics.
She introduced me to the beauty of
mathematics so that I’m now studying it
as well. It is not proofed yet if the Sophie
Germain primes of the type 2p+1 continue in
infinity. Nobody knows if there are infinite of
them or not. With my 4metre long tulle band
printed with these prime numbers I want to
emphasise this not proofed mystery of infinity.
On the opposite side of the bra, Sophie Germain
herself is looking at her 200 years old work.
