The central point of a Mandala is the space within which the viewer can identify themselves, in the centre of the circle is the highest deity or abstract concept. By placing a dead animal in that centre there is a possibility to shake some individuals perception of themselves and their whole, instinctively at a sub-conscious level. Something could be understood and revealed in that experience of the unfolding pattern. As the Mandala is an integral part of our collective consciousness that is shared by every person who ever lived. The varying reactions to my work make me believe that people are now so far removed from the cycles of the living world that they either fear that unknown exponentially or crave intimate knowledge of it and seek a return to a stronger connection with the natural cosmos. In some ways my work is exploring this disorder and departure from nature. I believe that our wholeness with the natural world around us is broken and by looking at the Mandala we can open our minds to what it actually means to be a human, as part of a natural environment, at this time in our history.
