2018
For Millennial Mandala I used sprites from classic videogames composited with clips of popular streamers' videos, to create a secular mandala for the information age. Each player is shown not during play, but during moments of silent detachment while their games load - a moment which echoes the mental emptiness Mandalas and other devotional objects were created to instill.
