MOSAIC REVIVAL: Three Contemporary expressions bring together the works of three internationally acclaimed mosaic artists from British Columbia: Daryl Wood, Lilian Broca, and Maria Abagis. Join the artists for the exhibition opening on Thursday, May 1, 6pm-8pm, and for their artist talk Saturday, May 24, 2pm – 4pm.
Shining the spotlight on this ancient medium; these artists challenge the viewer’s perception of what a mosaic is, and its relevance in the art world today. Mosaics, the art of arranging small pieces of coloured glass, stone and ceramic to create intricate images, has played an important aesthetic, cultural and historical role throughout the millennia. While lesser known in North America, there is a growing community of mosaic artists in Canada, many of whom are making a splash and a name for themselves on the international stage, including the artists in this exhibit. CityScape Community ArtSpace is open Wednesday – Saturday, 11am – 5pm |
