A week ago I went to a mosaic exhibition which was amazing and I want to share it with you before it finishes and maybe some of my local friends can go and visit it.
The exhibition was dedicated to patients with Alzheimer disease.
There are 23 artists who exhibit their mosaic works. I adored them.
This was my favourite piece.
This is huge!
I loved her eyes!Looking through me!
There were some pottery pieces too like these by
Christine Willis.
And others too.
The mosaics were exceptional.
This exhibition hid a surprise for me! After 33 years (since I finished High School) I met my History Teacher Mr Nikos Bendilas and his wife Maria. He has retired from teaching and he is an accomplished mosaic artist now.
Here is some of his work! Mosaics ...
and engraving on old pieces of pottery.
He even gave me one as a gift! Thank you so much!
I was so happy to meet him again. In fact we had met on facebook 6 months ago so this is one of the good things facebook can do!
I have attended more art exhibitions so I will be telling you about them as soon as I can.
