Abstract | This thesis is motivated by a desire to find a new way of working with textiles that is built upon my own interpretation of the mandala. The focus of study is placed, in particular, on the development of the image of the mandala by researching the ancient mandala diagrams of Tannic Buddhism and discovering a new technique to express my interpretation of this diagram. Over a period of six months, two paintings and two sculptures were carried out from the study of the mandala diagram and from the various technical experiments with fibers. The historical background and symbolic systems of the mandala diagram are discussed in Part one. My thesis work, the Mandala Series was guided and inspired by the Mandala diagrams and are discussed in Part Two. |
