It's amazing how many beautiful sites about labyrinths and mandalas and gardening I found looking for the 'Junk Lady' from "Labyrinth in my last post." There's a lot more going on out there in these creative - and ancient - areas than, I, certainly, had any clue.
In his style of psychoanalysis, Carl Jung used art - and mandalas specifcally, along with dream work and many other ways of inner 'mining' to help people move forward.
I just know I won't be able to resist, and will have to post - at least - some gallery of the ones done in plant life or stone.
This is a gallery of StarWheels by Aya. He has been working on many more than what I show here for the past 20 years.
The site, linked below, 'says:'
"The StarWheels are a collection of 6' x 6' mandala paintings
created and airbrushed on canvas by artist Aya.
These "neo-mandalas"
have been envisioned as a harmonic spiral of 12 series of 12 = 144
templates of Light. Since 1985, 108 + StarWheels have been birthed.
The
StarWheel Foundation is a non-profit educational organization dedicated
to the spiritual & transformational aspects of mandalas."
Thank you for sharing these, Aya. Good luck in your work.
