MANDALA / F8号

MANDALA is a series inspired by the swirling patterns of guardian lion-dogs found at Shinto shrines. While the word “mandala” often evokes a perfectly ordered circle, in this work the vortex moving toward the center never fully closes, but instead continues to expand in quiet resonance.
Layer upon layer of paint has been applied, fired, and carved away, creating a distinctive surface texture. The interplay between deep black and softly reflective silver gives rise to a moist, contemplative depth across the canvas.
It does not speak loudly, yet it gently draws the viewer’s gaze back again and again.
A work that brings a quiet center of gravity to any space.
