HOW DOES IT WORK ?
A GUIDE TO COMMUNAL MOSAIC MAKING
1. Brainstorming and/or Art and Drawing sessions with community consultation can come up with motifs.
2. A mosaic design is generated suitable for communal work in sections.
3. Engaging, fun and hands on group workshops are set up and community member are invited to participate to create elements of the mosaic. Guidance by the mosaic artist for techniques.
3. Completion : The Mosaic artist completes the rest of the project, and installs the mosaic.
