Date Issued:

Abstract/Description:
Art and mathematics are often times to disciplines that are stark contrasts to one another. In reality, the disciplines work in tandem. This connection is brought together in a single story line of invention through the process of Anamorphosis. Anamorphosis is a visual art technique involving perspective and distortion. To achieve this kind of perspective and distortion, Calculus III math processes are used. In this thesis, a linear timeline of Anamorphosis and its conception will be used to inform a final piece. I will create my own original work that will utilize the mathematical approaches and techniques.
