Dr. Dong, a topological crochet instructor at the National Museum of Mathematics, recently earned recognition for her award-winning paper-craft design, which was featured in the NY Times. Dr. Dong's work is currently on display at Composite on Fifth, the Gallery at MoMath, as part of the latest exhibition, Emergent Surfaces: Studies in Tension, which explores the dynamic interplay between structure and movement.
