In this project, I demonstrate the relationship between math and fine arts, showing some pieces that utilized the fundamentals of math. I'm studying to become an Art Educator and seeing how math relates and is used in different compositions and objects is a really cool, "full-circle" moment (no pun intended). I hope this makes you see artwork from a whole new mathematical perspective.

Hello, everyone.
I'm Julie Miller, and today I'll be talking about the
relationship between art and math.
How do math and art relate?
Mathematics aren't always visible in our unless you're looking for
it. But there are many ways that math is found
within various beautiful art discoveries.
Some math cop concepts seen our formulas, geometry, symmetry, angles
and ratios, perspective and measurements.
Three above are commonly used in art like pattern origami
weaving, figure painting, et cetera, to create accurate and aesthetically
pleasing pieces that have become historically famous and huge discoveries
for math and science.
Mathematical art in nature Math can be found in the
most extraordinary things nature has to offer, one of them
being Fibonacci Ease Fibonacci Sequence in Spiral, Named after 12th
century Italian mathematician Leonardo Fibonacci, who recognize the pattern that
occurs all throughout the natural world.
It is a sequence it is a certain sequence of
numbers were two numbers equal the sum that is the
preceding number.
So lilies and iris is have three pedals, while the
roses and buttercups have five petals.
Delphiniums have eight pedals and so on and so forth.
The sequence can be found throughout many things.
In nature and spirals are another thing that's been seen
throughout the whole universe, including Galaxies, plants, animals and seashells.
They have been using artistic works, even from the earliest
of findings.
Leonardo da Vinci, the Renaissance man who was a painter,
polymath and inventor among many other intelligent professions.
He's doing one of the most talented individuals who have
ever lived.
So, using research, he compiled, he found a way to
use Euclides golden ratio in his work, including one of
the world's most famous paintings, the Mona Lisa.
The Porsche is painted according to the ratio that is
120 618 It's considered the golden it's considered golden due
to it being found aesthetically pleasing and divine.
Again, we can see the nature's spiral.
This is also used in the Vitruvian man.
From the architectural findings of a trivia ce.
Da Vinci depicts a man in case perfectly inside a
square in circle, creating the ideal body.
At first it was drawn to figure out how to
find a square within a circle, a concept those that
mathematicians tried to solve.
Can the proportions of the human body can be measured
by four fingers equal one palm four palms equal 1
ft six palms make one cubit for cubits.
Equal a man's height for Cuba's equal one pace in
24 palms equal one man.
Lastly, we have eight idiots.
She was She was a weaving student in 1946 and
she was determined to create original work rather than following
typical patterns algebraic expressions in woven textiles.
So did submitted her woven piece to a country fair
at the Little Loom House in Louisville, and it was
created by using the formula A plus B plus C
plus de plus E plus F squared to complete the
pattern. It gained a lot of traction in remarked because
of her discovery, using the concept of designing by formula
and with using color, texture or block, we've structure for
each variable.
A breakdown is shown here than the use of polynomial
