Flower Mandalas


David J. Bookbinder, a Massachusetts artist, transforms images of flowers into mandalas. The results are visually arresting. The physical reality of the flower is maintained in the mandala, but manipulated to reveal new patterns “by painting with light”.

David is a frequent participant on the UBC Botanical Garden Forums, sharing photographs of plants he later transforms into the mandalas (in exchange for the occasional identification!).
