Return to Nature - The Ceremony of the Scripts

I've made an mandala (just as the buddhist monks are doing since ancient times)but on a round mirror. In five ancient languages and the modern English. Afterwards the whole work was wiped away. Presenting the transitory of everything. Materials: Round mirror, spices and colored powders, tools, brush, glass bowl, etc. Size 110cm

Beautiful work Ji, I understand what you did but still it seems a shame to wipe away such a beautiful piece.

Ji Hong Zhang
Artist Reply: Thank you so much Liz! Yes for most people it seems strange to destroy your art of many hours work. But as the buddists say; all is just a reflection of a moment...a flash thought. And nothing is lost it just became part of the whole as I throw the powder in the sea
