World Wheel (Earth Mandala) is an artistic forum for global understanding consisting of twelve monumental stone sculptures and ceremony performance events circling the globe on the 34th latitudinal parallel. These sculptures are created by Vijali Hamilton, founding director of the World Wheel and the performances are a collaboration with Vijali and each host community. The World Wheel focuses on spiritual ecological issues activating an awareness of the interrelatedness of all life. Through active participation with local artists, performers and community, World Wheel addresses the people’s deepest personal and social concerns, working creatively with them to resolve cultural conflicts. World Wheel provides a transformative experience for the community.
