Mathematics is art

Mathematics is an art. I really think so. There are so many things in this world. I guess all of them that have forms can be described in mathematics. Someday, not only geometrical objects but also non-geometrical ones can be expressed using mathematics. Even the human body. Frankly speaking, I want to express a beautiful woman in mathematical formulas. In my opinion, the formulas themselves will be also beautiful. 
Recently, I have known the "Function Graph Art Nationwide Contest". The following is its poster in 2006.

This contest was founded by a teacher at a technical college in Japan. Unfortunately, I'm not sure whether it keeps being held still now or not. But at least, it seemed that it was held in 2021. Because I saw a winner of this contest in 2021. The winner was a high school girl. It's so amazing. Anyway, I will show you her idea, in other words, her picture based on many mathematical formulas as follows.

It's a "Ukiyoe". I was deeply moved and impressed so much. I heard that "Ukiyoe" is popular in the world. The master of "Ukiyoe" had a strong influence on famous post-impressionist painters in France like Vincent Willem van Gogh, Paul Gauguin, and so on. Namely, famous paintings of post-impressionist painters in France may be also expressed in mathematical formulas, I expect.
By the way, the above "Ukiyoe" consists of many mathematical formulas (functions) for each part like eye, nose, hands, and so on. Unfortunately, their functions are not so beautiful. I want to express them more beautifully. 

Pole Dance Silhoette

I'm interested in the formulas to express "Pole Dance". I'd like to try it someday.
