Abstract

This article links modern fractal art, which has entered the visual arts, with the science of applied decorative arts, and highlights the presence of fractals in geometric shapes and the methods of constructing them.  This paper explores various methods of generating fractals using geometric shapes, including iterative processes, affine transformations, and substitution rules. By examining these techniques, we aim to provide a comprehensive understanding of fractal construction and its applications in mathematics, computer graphics, and natural modeling.
