I love all those dot and circle patterns!
Reminds me a good bit of some of Maxfield Parrish’s work, who made several pieces heavy on the dots, like with “The Idiot” (below).When I take a good, close look, often I start to see some ‘visual illusion’ patterns. Things spring in to motion on their own as I lose myself in the dots…

Another female artist you should know: Ruth Asawa. The Japanese American artist known for her hanging wire sculptures - MoMA is about to open the largest-ever show for a woman in her honor. - https://lemmy.dbzer0.com/pictrs/image/9925293e-792f-404d-b9ac-12945f532654.webp
Not the same style but similar in spirit
Aha, and in turn her stuff I can see there reminds me of the old Spirograph drawing tool / toy.

Those used to be really common in the States up until maybe the late 70’s / early 80’s, but then I guess they got ‘bumped out’ by… video games, other toys, electronic toys, etc. But they were really pretty neat. And fun.
There was also a really cool artist in the early 2000’s that used such a technique to produce complex, line-based portraits, but I’ll be danged if I can remember who that was, anymore.
I love geometric art
