We are now faced with the fact, my friends, that tomorrow is today. We are confronted with the fierce urgency of now. In this unfolding conundrum of life and history, there is such a thing as being too late. Procrastination is still the thief of time.

Rigid order and perfect symmetry has never looked so good: London-based artist Leonardo Ulian welds bits and pieces of technological components to make these delicate mandalas.
