Inspired by the element of fire.
A kinetic mandala with heat in its directionality. The repetition suggests ignition and transformation—flame-like energy shaped into clean geometry that never loses its center.
Ink on paper.
Artist Statement
The five traditional elements of nature are earth, water, fire, air, and spirit (or space/aether). These elements are recognized in various ancient cultures, including Greek, Indian, and Chinese traditions, and are used to describe the fundamental components of the natural world and the human body. Each element is associated with different qualities, such as solidity for earth, fluidity for water, heat for fire, movement for air, and consciousness or space for spirit. Fire represents heat, transformation, energy, and digestion.
