"i don't do math" Panel Discussion with Ann Piché and Professors Daniel Ansari and Darja Barr

Join artist Ann Piché and Professors Daniel Ansari and Darja Barr for an interdisciplinary discussion that contextualizes dyscalculia and explores how changing notions of mathematics and math education have shaped, and continue to shape, our history and society.

This panel discussion accompanies "i don't do math." a photography exhibition by Ann Piché that is currently displayed at University of Toronto New College's D.G. Ivey Library until October 15, 2025.

“I Don’t Do Math” is a photographic series by Canadian photo-based artist Ann Piché exploring dyscalculia, a learning difference that affects how people understand and work with numbers. Featuring 15 photographs and 5 text-based panels, the exhibition pairs abstract images with mathematical formulas to translate the frustration many feel when navigating a number-focused world and to spark conversation about support and understanding.
