Color Body Mandala Series The Color series begins with a studio photograph of the human body, then is transformed through a meticulous symmetry process—mirroring and rotating the figure into a mandala-like structure rooted in sacred geometry. The result is a balanced, radiating composition where the body becomes both subject and architecture. What defines this series is its chromatic framework: a study of color built from a 12-color palette I developed using Fibonacci-based proportional relationships. This system brings mathematical harmony to hue, contrast, and rhythm—so color is not decoration, but the organizing force that reveals a hidden order beneath the surface.
Why collect this work?
SHS18-C270 turns a photographed body into a tightly ordered radial form, making repetition the point where individual identity gives way to collective pattern.
- Bianchi describes his Body Mandalas as a search for connections between bodily vulnerability and larger systems of order. Here, that intention is supported by the figure remaining legible even as symmetry converts it into structure.
- In the supplied photograph, seated figures form a continuous ring around a small central disc. Their dark heads mark the outer edge, while clasped hands and folded limbs generate denser rhythms toward the centre.
- Catalogue metadata identifies a 2025 archival pigment print on metallic paper, measuring 30.48 centimetres square. The square format stabilises the circular design, while metallic paper may alter luminosity as viewing conditions change.
- The work is especially useful for examining how photographic repetition can hold two readings at once: a gathering of bodies and an almost floral, architectural diagram.
