Mathematical Art and Visualization

Growing up with video games, especially Nintendo, sparked much of my creativity. This piece, created entirely using mathematical functions, is a nod to The Legend of Zelda and its iconic character, Link, who symbolizes curiosity and adventure. By combining mathematics and creative design, I plotted a variety of functions on a Cartesian plane to generate a recognizable artistic figure. This project reflects my love for storytelling and highlights the unique intersection of math and art that has shaped my artistic journey.

Types of functions used:
Quadratic: For parabolic curves (face outline).
Square Root: For gradual, sloped curves (hair).
Trigonometric (Sine): For oscillating patterns (details of the hair).
Implicit Equations (Ellipses): For circular or oval shapes (eyes).
Higher-Order Polynomials: For sharper, more precise features (jaw and collar).
