Woven Light

Ten mandalas exploring colour, repetition, and the beauty of recursive geometry.

Woven Light is a collection of ten digital mandalas created using recursive geometry software. Fine, intersecting lines gather into intricate circular compositions, forming delicate webs of colour and pattern. Together, they explore how the repetition of simple forms can give rise to unexpected complexity.

The collection moves through a spectrum of luminous yellow, fresh lime, rich green, turquoise, and soft blue. This gradual transition connects the individual works while giving each its own atmosphere—from the warmth of the yellow compositions to the quieter feeling of the pale blues. Across these backgrounds, the light-coloured linework creates textures reminiscent of lace, flower petals, and finely spun threads.

Each mandala offers a different balance between structure and softness. In some, distinct rings and floral shapes draw attention towards the centre. In others, densely overlapping lines soften the underlying geometry into an almost mist-like surface. Seen from a distance, the designs appear as unified fields of colour; viewed closely, they reveal smaller rhythms, intersections, and repeating motifs.

For me, the appeal of these works lies in that shifting experience of looking: noticing the whole, then discovering the details that compose it. Woven Light invites a moment of unhurried attention—a chance to follow a line, explore a pattern, and enjoy the meeting of geometric order and visual delicacy.
