Sun and Moon Mandala
by Chandrakala Devi
₹3,800
A perfectly balanced square canvas holds a circular mandala with the sun (Surya) at the top and moon (Chandra) at the bottom, meeting at the center in cosmic union. Twelve concentric rings of progressively intricate geometric patterns — diamonds, chevrons, dots, swastikas, crosses — surround the central motif. The outer ring is bordered by alternating lotus petals and diamond shapes. Painted entirely in bold red, black and natural white — the three sacred colors of tantrik art that represent Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva.
