Samurai Tree 6C
2006
A luminous geometric composition rendered in egg tempera and gold leaf on red cedar panels, Samurai Tree 6C presents an intricate web of interlocking circles that radiate outward from a central point in a hypnotic, mandala-like formation. Orozco's precise, meditative brushwork creates a dialogue between the warm organic grain of the cedar and the cool mathematical rigor of the repeating circular forms. The shimmering gold leaf punctuates the composition with flashes of light, evoking both ancient decorative traditions and a distinctly modern sense of structural order.
