The Roses

The Rose Mandala installations are based historical circular structures with the intention that these temporal work changes over time.  These works are created by plucking dozens of roses apart petal by petal circling coloured mirrors range from 10 feet  to 60 feet wide. The mandalas are left to dry as the  petals are reduces to a quarter of their original size. At the end,  the mandala is swept up, gathered and thrown to the winds or blown away by human in breath in a final performance. These installation / performances reflect the ephemeral process of change, age, decay and emptiness.
