At the start of my independent artistic career, I created small-dimension mosaics. They adorned private residences’ walls, patios, balconies, tables, and fountains. Birds, plants, and interwoven ivy are among the motifs used to design these mosaics.
First, I broke the stone with a hammer, and then I shaped them into more regular cubes with pliers. The seams of the binding material between the cubes are visible in each mosaic I made.
I like how the joints make the air better, enhance the atmosphere of the mosaic image, and sometimes draw attention to its calm or strong tone. The connecting line highlights the mosaic’s visual attractiveness and adds to the complex, colorful natural stone’s rhythm.
In Byzantine, Greek, and Roman art, as well as early Christian art, the visible seam method (opus tessellatum) was frequently employed.
In a number of my abstract mosaics that feature themes from my Touch of the Bridge series paintings, I used bits of clay, wire, and glass.
