The world is made up of both geometric and
biomorphic shapes. Circles, squares, rectangles,
triangles and many other shapes with straight
edges are geometric.
Shapes that taken from nature that usually have curvy lines are biomorphic.
Geometric and biomorphic shapes are
used in art. Some artworks use only geometric shapes, while others use
only biomorphic forms. Some use both kinds.

Joep van Lieshout's sculpture,
The Good, the Bad, and the Ugly, has both a geometric part (the cabin)
and a biomorphic part (the moving Art Lab). Look at all these other works to find
their geometric and biomorphic parts.
