Gift commission. Intricate cut-paper mandala design, based on traditional Tibetan Buddhist mandala patterns, inspired by the theme of keeping the flame of love burning. The design features Tibetan 'endless knot' symbols. The four 'quarters' of the mandala suggest the pattern of a clock face, alluding to the passing of time. The 'flame' or 'flower' of love burns outwards from the centre.



Price: £SOLD. In a private collection in Woodbridge, England.
