Hamid Naderi Yeganeh (Persian: حمید نادری یگانه‎; born July 26, 1990 in Iran[1]) is an Iranian mathematical artist.[2][3][4] He is known for using mathematical formulas to create drawings of real-life objects, intricate illustrations, animations, fractals and tessellations.[5][6][7] His artwork 9,000 Ellipses was used as the background cover image of The American Mathematical Monthly – November 2017.[8][9][10]

Works

Drawings of real-life objects

A Bird in Flight, by Hamid Naderi Yeganeh is an example of drawing real-life objects with math.[11]

Naderi Yeganeh has introduced two methods to draw real-life objects with mathematical formulas.[3] In the first method, he creates tens of thousands of computer-generated mathematical figures to find a few interesting shapes accidentally.[12] For example, by using this method, he found some shapes that resemble birds, fishes and sailing boats.[13][14][15] In the second method, he draws a real life object with a step-by-step process. In each step, he tries to find out which mathematical formulas will produce the drawing.[5][3] For example, by using this method, he drew birds in flight, butterflies, human faces and plants using trigonometric functions.[16][17][18][5]

Fractals and tessellations

He has designed some fractals and tessellations inspired by the continents.[19][20] For example, in 2015, he described the fractal Africa with an Africa-like octagon and its lateral inversion.[13][21]

Views

Naderi Yeganeh believes that there are an infinite number of ways of using mathematical tools in art.[22] He says, "I don’t think computer-made art clashes with human creativity, but it can change the role of artists.”[23]

Education

Naderi Yeganeh received his bachelor's degree in mathematics from the University of Qom.[24] He won a gold medal at the 38th Iranian Mathematical Society’s Mathematics Competition in May 2014 and a silver medal at the 39th IMS’s Mathematics Competition in May 2015.[25][26][27]
