Glass Mandalas, Red and Green

Title

Glass Mandalas, Red and Green

Description

Mandalas invite the eye to wander in a circle of spiral patterns, finding places where the design repeats itself. In each pattern, we can find the panes of the stained glass window that gives its colors to the design. Each mandala was created using a mathematical formula to reference pixels in the source photograph of the window, as well as its negative. Both mandalas have five-fold rotational symmetry, an uncommon choice in mandala design, but one that echoes the symmetry of the window, which was made from my design by Hans Schepker.
