The "kitties" were hand-drawn using Adobe Fresco .
The catenary curve is vital in architecture, used in the design of arches (like the Gateway Arch) and suspension bridges to ensure stability. Catenary Kitties – Fractal Kitty
The project focuses on the catenary curve , the natural U-shape a chain or cable assumes under its own weight when supported at its ends. The "kitties" were hand-drawn using Adobe Fresco

Project Overview: Catenary Kitties is a generative math-art project created by Sophia Wood , better known as Fractal Kitty . Developed in January 2022 for the "Architecture" prompt of Genuary —a month-long creative coding challenge—the project blends hand-drawn digital art with mathematical code to explore the aesthetic of suspension curves.
