Winter's Edge
Donated to Flying Colors Silent Art Auction benefiting the Children’s Museum and Theatre of Maine. May 10, 2024.
As winter’s edge slowly recedes, ice and snow reveal the season’s quiet dance of expansion and contraction, shaping a new path forward.
The tesserae (pieces of stone) in this mosaic are hand cut using the traditional tools of mosaicists, the hammer and hardie. No two tesserae are alike. The white marble and deep blue azul sodalite reference the colors of the Maine coastline in winter. This piece explores the andamento (visual flow of the tesserae) of a line, expanding and contracting, creating movement with a tension and release that parallels a journey through Maine’s winter.
Materials: Marble, azul sodalite, cement. Set in a painted black wood frame. Hanging hardware attached.
Framed dimensions: H 4” x W 4” x D 0.5”
