Commissioned by Potato Head as a one-off piece, GeoStar is a meditational mandala based on sacred geometry based on sacred geometry and the geodesic crystallography of the late, great Buckminster Fuller in the 1950’s.
It features human figures (symbolising humanity) surrounded by zodiac signs (representing the heavens), with a star at the centre embodying the shared heart connecting all things as one.
A mandala is a centering device, to draw you into the heart of things, your own heart, where a great musical order is revealed behind the apparent complexities of our lives.
