Flicker of Spring captures the delicate spark at the threshold of a new season — when the last breath of winter meets the promise of bloom. Set against a luminous yellow resin field, the single blossom-laden branch holds its place like a memory returning to light.

The wood’s warm tones and soft textures offer a grounded base, while floating petals and gentle resin glints add a sense of upward movement — a flicker, not yet a flame, but full of potential.

Crafted from salvaged wood and hand-finished, this piece speaks to the quiet moments that precede change. It is a small celebration of beginning again — tender, bright, and open to what’s next.

MANDARA – BOTANICAL RESIN ART FROM CHIANG MAI

Original Works in Reclaimed Wood, Art Resin, and Botanical Inlays

Each piece holds a story. We invite you to find yours.

Mandara Studio

Based in Chiang Mai, Mandara creates wall art that honors nature’s imperfections — capturing time, texture, and organic form through salvaged wood, hand-poured resin, and botanical inlays.

Inspired by the Wabi-Sabi philosophy and a deep reverence for the natural world, every panel is sculpted with intention — letting the grain, bloom, and bubble speak for themselves.

Art is in the patience of the process.

Each piece is made from salvaged timber, often marked by time and weather — and inlaid with real botanical elements preserved in crystal-clear resin. These works evoke a quiet sense of wonder, stillness, and connection to the natural world.
