#Repost @chicagomosaicschool with @get_repost ・・・ Today’s featured CMS mosaic is by British artist Gary Drostle. This work, “Entwined Histories” (2012) exemplifies how a piece of public art in mosaic can beautifully describe the communities where it sits. Drostle uses the history of the site, which produced ropes for the London docks, to describe the immigrant communities that worked on the dock and in the textile industries.Each strand of rope represents a community through their own cultural textile pattern. Enjoy! We’re beyond excited for Gary’s Architectural Mosaics Workshop running June 5th-9th! (at Bow, London) https://www.instagram.com/p/ByCx7YRHjib/?igshid=9lei611r91po -- source link
