Futuristic Homotopy, oil on canvas. Artist Nina Valetova

Many years ago, my friend artist has given me a book , and since then I know about the Mobius strip, homotopy and the artist Escher. After many years, I subconsciously made a sketch and suddenly realized that I created something like a homotopy topology.
In topology, two continuous functions from one topological space to another are called homotopic if one can be "continuously deformed" into the other, such a deformation being called a homotopy between the two functions.
 I  do not affirm that I created something that accurately represents this theory. The person in the painting is a female robot, since the creation of robots also closely correlates with science. Thus, the topic of science is the content of my picture. By the way, my son is a scientist, physicist and mathematician.

Artists and Scientists

The left side of the brain is responsible for controlling the right side of the body. It also performs tasks that have to do with logic, such as in science and mathematics. On the other hand, the right hemisphere coordinates the left side of the body, and performs tasks that have do with creativity and the arts.
Usually the right side of the brain is associated exclusively with the intuition and creative inspiration radically contrasting "logical" left side". In reality, such a strict division does not exists: the right side functions are inseparable from the logic of activity, and the same left side is in the field of their responsibility, for example, an ear for music. But the right side is really more focused on holistic, imaginative perception, rather than the analysis of individual data components, and in this respect both sides of the brain supplement each other.
I realize the work of scientists, as had the opportunity to be familiar with some of them. In fact, the work of scientists is not only the data analysis, but also a holistic perception and imagination. The scientist must have a great imagination to create a new hypothesis. Scientists must cross the boundaries of reality and think as science fiction writers. Often scientists make new discoveries after the emergence of fantastic theories.
I think that scientists are the same as the creative artists. To be precise, not all artists have a great imagination and make their work imitating other artists or because they have been taught in art schools. Only a few artists founded new movements in art and styles. Also a few scientists make great discoveries. There are not many real talented people in the world. Take care of talented people and support them.
