Abstract: This paper explores two-way relations between visualizations in mathematics and mathematical art, as well as art in general. A collection of vignettes illustrates connection points, including visualizing higher dimensions, tessellations, knots and links, plotting zeros of polynomials, and new and rapidly developing mathematical discipline, diagrammatic categorification.
Keywords: diagrams; categorification; mathematics; art; constructivism; knots; polynomials; symmetry; tessellations; quantum
