CG Jung explains: "The Sanskrit word mandala means circle in general. In the context of religious practices and in psychology it means circular images that you can draw, paint ... Very often contain a mandala or quaternity multiple of four in the shape of a cross, star, square ... In alchemy this is why it has taken the form of squaring Circular. G. Poulet, citing a passage from Rousseau's Lettres, compares the condition of those who delves into his life with that of a spider at the center of its web: "Let us become once again ourselves, with the focus on us, with our soul circumscribe the same limits Nature has given to our being, in a word where we start collecting, so looking to know, you may call at the same time in front of us all that we are composed.

OPERA
in 1992 were performed by the Master Patella 5 mosaics and this one here has a significant value as it is one of those made with smalti original ancient Ugo Donà & Sons Company, a company no longer active in Venice. Glazes are glassy materials intimately changing colors as the color was not added to the surface but is integral part of the glass material itself. Add the reflectivity of glass surfaces, resins incorporated with gold-toned lightweight. A symbolic circle around the central area varied multicolored with shades of powder (not visible in photo) isolates the nucleus from the little frame mosaic of wood: one created by the surface in one working session and that presents enormous technical difficulties (experts mosaic will include the entity). The center circle absorbs the attention that in turn includes a square of gold dust that contains within it a circle opalescent resin, interspersed with a Greek cross with inserts of dust of various colors, but the grain evenly. Yes should continue to review this mosaic, but it would take away the taste of the discovery of all significantly correlated with research on the mandala.
COST-BASED DEFINITION
work of art in general (a sculpture, a painting, print), involves material costs (raw materials used, time and quality of the workforce) and intangible costs (search for specific artists, added value given by the artist and his personal history). A mosaic requires time-consuming, in this case the artist in question, can be quantified in an average of 5 hours of work in order to fully an area of \u200b\u200b100x100mm (a square di 10 cm di lato). Questo mosaico ha richiesto circa 100 ore di lavoro manuale. E questi tempi minimi sono inderogabili, possono aumentare ma sicuramente non possono essere accorciati. Un ulteriore aggravio è la circostanza che i materiali vetrosi (tessere a vari spessori) - per loro natura costosi - sono da acquistare solo direttamente in fabbrica, a Murano e/o nelle immediate vicinanze. Si aggiunga infine la tecnica usata dall’artista, quella cioè di polverizzare in grane diverse gli smalti veneziani e distenderli in campiture omogenee e/o miscelate: una tecnica rara, innovativa e dai risultati sorprendenti. In questo mosaico le campiture in polveri hanno raggiunto dei risultati veramente esemplari.
