Lunar New Year 2022-Year of the Tiger


Playing with the geometry of the tiger's face- taken as an octagon. The octagon is also found in Chinese art and architecture.

Even William Blake acknowledged the symmetry in his poem which starts with the following stanza...

Tyger Tyger, burning bright, 

In the forests of the night; 

What immortal hand or eye, 

Could frame thy fearful symmetry?
