Mandalas

Back again....haven't had much spare time to rave lately, been under the weather and just generally going hard. Latest thing was a installation at the Community Centres and Family Support Network Assoc. Queensland (mouthful) Common Ground Conference.
So how does this relate to mosaics?
Well they wanted something to reinforce the conference values along a creative participatory line so I decided to take a leaf out of Amanda King's book and do a Rangoli manadala. Rangoli is the Tibetan practice of sand painting mandalas that symbolise key chosen elements.
Anyway, it was a big success, everyone that could kneel on the ground got in and together we created a 12m2 mandala reflecting a little bit of everyone that took part. Pictures will be posted on the website soon.
