Mandala, sokak sanatından, kağıt sanatına farklı sanat pratikleri için ilham kaynağı olabiliyor. Avustralyalı sanatçı Shona Wilson da Offerings adlı serisinde organik malzemeler kullanarak mandala benzeri düzenlemeler yapıyor.

Sanatçı son 20 senedir doğal malzemeler kullanarak sanatsal düzenlemeler yapıyor. Çalı çırpı, yapraklar, tohumlar, kemikler ve doğada rastladığı pek çok şeyi kullanıyor. Wilson yapıtlarını doğal alanlara yerleştirmiyor belki ama bunlar malzeme ve estetik olarak özellikle Richard Shilling’in arazi sanatı çalışmalarını anımsatıyor.

Doğal malzemelerde gizli iyileştirici titreşimler

Wilson iyileştirici etkisi olmasını umarak tasarladığı Offerings nesnelerinin, doğadan titreşimler taşıdığına inanıyor. Bu titreşimler yapıldıkları malzemelerin içine gömülü haldeler ve malzemelerin frekanslarını dış dünyaya yayıyorlar. Sanatçı yalnızca kendisi üretmekle de kalmıyor atölye çalışmaları düzenleyerek başka insanlara da yaratıcı ve oyuncu bir yaklaşımla doğayla nasıl bağ kurabileceklerini anlatıyor.

Love this install shot @arthousegallery Offering No. 7 against a dark background. Very dramatic! I have been wondering what it reminds me of ever since I made it. It just came to me – a brooch of my mothers! Very oversized in this instance 100×100 cm. Probably Scottish – a Celtic Cross of sorts or a shield or … It goes on . Lucky owners – thank you ? #sculpture #natural #foundmaterials #assemblage #contemporaryart. Beautiful Photo by Will Mansfield – thanks again ?
