This is a blog documenting the found object mandalas hand-stitched by Susan Lenz. The series was started in August 2020. The series debuted in the 2021 Philadelphia Museum of Art Craft Show and was accepted into the 2022 Smithsonian Craft Show. It returned to Philadelphia in 2022. Since then, the series was picked up for representation at the Grovewood Gallery in Asheville, NC and Spalding Nix Fine Art in Atlanta, GA.
