Tarot Mandala

Tarot Mandala

Tarot Mandala is a creative exercise on a Mandala inspired by Tarot. This Mandala represents a vectorised, figurative exercise inspired on one of Nicolas Conver’s deck models dating from 1760, but most likely produced between 50 and 70 years later. The handmade printing technique, as well as the effect of its rudimentary and more rectilinear graphic appearance are particularly appealing to me from the aspect of my profession as a printing specialist. But the detail that decided on this model was the year 1760, a very interesting one from the point of view of my personal study.

The word Mandala means ‘circle’ in Sanskrit and is regarded as an ancient symbol of healing and spirituality. Mandala also has other meanings, such as Magic Circle or Energy Core, and universally a Mandala is a symbol of integration and harmony, the link between man and the cosmos, a calming tool that I myself often use on very tense days, for mental and emotional balance or to sharpen a particular focus. Mandalas are great visual tools to increase focus.

This category is specially applied to wall decoration, but perfectly adjustable to fabrics printing and any other supports/substrates.
