Abstract

In this essay, I argue that art and mathematics share some properties in common, and the simple polarity that the former is imaginative and the latter, logical, is not correct. Instead, such overlapping elements suggest that they reveal a certain transdisciplinary realm, if you will, and this is owing to the fact that they are not simply isolated cultural products, but rather part of natural processes themselves. In light of this, one’s attitude towards culture itself - that it to say, of individuals and society - ought to be produced and consumed with a sense of humility and awe, not to mention critique.
