A heart, hand-crafted from mathematics.
An attempt at showing the ethereal beauty of abstract concepts.
Drawing painstakingly by hand what software could create quickly. In defiance of artificial intelligence and hyper optimized productivity.
Three-dimensional Lissajous figures form a translucent ribbon. Each curve is constructed using the traditional techniques of descriptive geometry: Two two-dimensional images are needed to create the orthographic projection from it. The 2D images in turn are generated from first principle - calculating trigonometric functions geometrically.

Elke Stangl (elkement) (she/her) is an Austrian physics PhD working as an engineer. Her mathematical art is borne out of her life-long passion for the theoretical underpinnings of her craft. She is creating virtual three-dimensional structures from mathematical functions – digitally with code or with ruler and compass, using.. Read more…
