In Safonov’s work, the central point is most often a small blob of metallic acrylic paint, or a perfectly placed pearl bead. From there, the patient artist meticulously forms the rest of the radial design with various shapes, lines and swirls. Once complete, her pieces are painted with a protective clear lacquer
Traditionally, the mandala is a spiritual and ritual symbol used in Hinduism and Buddhism, believed to be a meditative and therapeutic process for the creator. The radiating geometric pattern flows from a central starting point and is said to symbolically represent the universe. Additionally, according renowned psychoanalyst Carl Jung, mandala art is a means of expression for the “wholeness of the self.”
