Why Math and Art?

I love how math is the abstract pursuit of artistic beauty.... like poetry, music, paintings and much more! Numbers represent quantities and concepts -- some imaginary while others concrete...., we use math to formulate ideas and to express the world around us! Interestingly enough, math intertwines with art in all forms, be them man-made or natural. Just look around you! Fractals, Golden ratios, tessellations, architecture, music, anatomy, animation, movement, dancing, sounds, inventions, the expansion of the universe, the swelling of the seas, lightening storms, the shape of virtually everything is patterns and much can be explained with math! .... When we manipulate and represent ideas through this "language of math" we find a sense of the true beauty, and therefore the art, of mathematics! It seems there’s a purposeful cosmic order to the universe, …And that’s why I want to share how math is an art form that begs us to reflect and to identify with a sense of balance, harmony, and appeal that is humanly breathtaking and definitely worth appreciating! 😊
