Circular Abstract 1

This circular composition reads like a mandala engineered from tension—four chromatic fields radiate outward, their disciplined striations suggesting both centrifugal motion and the insistence of order. At the core, a stark white cross and haloed circle operate as a compass point, a quiet axis where opposing energies briefly reconcile before flaring back into red, blue, ochre, and near-black depths. The tactile, hand-worked grooves catch light as if the surface were vibrating, turning geometry into a psychological landscape of balance, rupture, and return. In its symmetry, the work proposes a meditative structure, yet the saturated contrasts hint at the lived complexity beneath any promise of unity.
