Snowflakes are nature's six-pointed crystals formed when water vapor freezes in clouds, yet this eight-pointed rendition draws from the ancient ornamental tradition of radial symmetry found in mandalas, kaleidoscopes, and textile design. The mirrored branching structure mirrors the mathematical beauty of actual ice crystals while embracing the decorative liberty artists have taken for centuries to create endlessly varied stellar patterns.
