Johana's Mandala Drawing

Description

This mandala drawing, while simple and unfinished, includes a lot of depth and nuance to it. Created by--or perhaps honoring--Johana, this mandala includes a heart at the center with vibrant flowers growing out of it. In the center of the heart is Johana's name in pencil which is hard to see unless looking closely. The faded name can imply that migrant farmworkers are almost ghosts at surface level to most people. They do a lot of the work that feeds the population but people turn a blind eye to their efforts. Johana's incorporation of shading in this mandala adds to the essence of it along with the curved lines coming out of the heart creating a nice flowing image. This mandala exudes warmth and love through the heart, flowers, and the name printed front and center of it all.
