Mandala V 1960

"Mandala V," a 1960 woodcut by Worden Day (1916-1986), utilizes a hatched style to create a sense of depth and texture. The image depicts a geometric, circular form, suggestive of a mandala, which is a spiritual and ritual symbol in Hinduism and Buddhism. The stylized lines and forms create a sense of movement and energy, conveying a spiritual and contemplative experience. The composition's use of light and shadow highlights the intricate details of the design. Day's "Mandala V" is a fine example of his exploration of abstract and spiritual themes through the medium of printmaking.
