Karina Herrera Orozco, a visionary artist with a specialty on Mandala art, is set to unveil the magic of mandala through her first solo exhibition Colors of Life at the Gateway Gallery from 28 June to 12 July.
The word “mandala” originated in India. The Sanskrit word, meaning “circle,” carries deeper spiritual and symbolic meanings, particularly in Hindu and Buddhist traditions. It represents wholeness, unity, and the universe. It is widely used in English to present a geometric design or pattern.
For Orozco, painting is more than an artistic pursuit — it is a meditative practice where its spiritual energy is felt by the viewers, inviting them to a portal to peace. The process of creating each art piece demands time, but it allows the passionate artist the opportunity to free-handedly design unique patterns.
This unique collection is expected to captivate art lovers as it features Orozco’s brand of intricate mandala patterns, which she hand-painted on wood. Using only acrylic paint, craft mirrors, rhinestones, a brush, and her delicate dots, she brings to life a vibrant and multi-dimensional collection that pleases the eyes and touches the soul.
Orozco’s Mandala art show will be an immersive experience, featuring the exquisite balance and creativity that define her masterpieces. Admiring the fusion of color and symmetry, her audience will be engulfed with feelings of harmony and mindfulness.
