A Dance of Petals and Waves: An Overview
This mandala, titled Petal Prism, exudes a rhythmic harmony of petal-shaped forms layered within elliptical and wave-like boundaries. At first glance, the design evokes a garden of repeating floral motifs, each with six radiant petals encased in bold black outlines. Between these blooms, abstract wave clusters interlock like puzzle pieces, forming an intricate, seamless tapestry.
This is not a traditional single-center mandala; instead, it embraces patterned repetition, ideal for users who appreciate symmetry without radial confinement. The entire design creates a sense of movement, almost as if the petals and waves are breathing together.
