This work references the Chinese lion head and lion dance tradition to explore protection and ritual.
Historically used to ward off evil and dispel negative energy, the lion becomes a guardian figure rooted in strength and cultural memory.
Suspended overhead, the lion becomes both guardian and guide. Beneath it, an intricate floor mandala—rooted in Chinese and Tantric geometric traditions—acts as a symbolic portal for meditation, empowerment, and awakening.
