Description

This configuration of thirteen sets of concentric circles grows out of an ancient tradition of visual alchemy. The faculties of imagination and intuition are employed as guides in the discovery of new and meaningful relationships between geometric elements in a plane (on a flat surface). In this particular instance, the task was to discover a pattern representing the number 13 wherein harmonic symmetry is a constant. This configuration of thirteen color-coded circular rings answers this design challenge. Logic is also employed as part strategy in the creation of this pattern; a perfect example of the rich dialogue between right and left hemispheres of the brain. Let us remember that Mandalas are intended as two dimensional re-presentations of (ideally sacred) sounds.
