Kathy Klein’s artful Mandalas
First of all, a Sanskrit word Mandala means “circle”, or “center”. Noteworthy, the figure is symmetric, and this is a philosophical concept of the model of the Buddhist universe. Besides, people use the magic figure in the practice of meditation. However, Mandalas can be works of art, and forms created by nature itself.
By the way, Aztec calendar stone is also a mandala. In addition, the Earth, a compass and a snowflake, the human eye, the annual rings on a tree and a cut pattern formed by iron filings, opened flower and an orange slice – all are mandalas.
Meanwhile, American artist Kathy Klein even calls herself Danmala. She creates wonderful mandalas of flowers, fruits and vegetables, and other gifts of nature. The talented artist Kathy Klein is a devout lover of plants, animals, people and the divine presence within all. According to her, the mandalas remind us all to listen to the unheard voice of nature, creation, and the eternal mystery.
