Lotus:
The Mandala Series
2015 - 2016
The natural world is built on the phenomenon of a living entity growing out of a central point. Petals grow out from a flower, a tree marks each year with concentric rings in its trunk, and single cell divides exponentially, marking the beginning of life itself.
These pieces build on the idea of growth stemming from a central life force, a dot, a point, a cell. Like natural phenomenon all around us, these pieces also start with simple beginnings and expand reaching out in different directions. Each line is meticulously crafted, leaping off from a previous point, creating something greater than itself with each step.
