Mandala in Flamenco Guitar

‘Mandala in Flamenco Guitar’ explores the integration of cultural signifiers from diverse cultures of India and Spain. The mandala pattern was incorporated into the rosette and inlays of the traditional Spanish flamenco guitar.

The project was produced through traditional guitar making techniques coupled with 3D modeling and printing.

The top is made of Mediterranean Cypress. The back, sides, neck, and heel are made of Cedar. The headstock and saddle are made of Bolivian Pau Ferro. The fretboard is made of African Ovankgo.
