From the artist; "I cut away a portion of both mirrors which creates the central pedestal, upon which is the moving mandala. The illuminated/decorated base inside, surrounding the central pedestal is drawn, painted and gilded. I made the initial sketch and color selections, then printed that design onto archival paper, then I go back and individually customise the rest of the design, adding the metallic paint and details."
