Mosaics

16/17, 23/24 August

Mosaic art has influenced my creativity like no other art practice. “Perfect in its imperfection” it provides a unique platform for art and life. Sharing my knowledge and skills through workshops, commissions and encouraging community engagement through art is a privilege. The impact art has on individuals and communities inspires me.
