Community work, The London Bridge Mosaic<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n

This photo captures a moment from one of the most meaningful projects I\u2019ve been part of: the London Bridge mosaic. Spanning two years and stretching 57 meters beneath the Shard, this vibrant public artwork was a project by the London School of Mosaics, designed by artist Adam Nathaniel Furman. I was one of the artists in residence, working alongside over 50 volunteers to bring this joyful, large scale installation to life. Together, we transformed the tunnel into a celebration of colour, craft, and community tile by tile.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Crafted in Collaboration<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Some commissions call for more than one pair of hands! These mosaics were created in partnership with fellow mosaicists and artists, bringing together different styles, skills, and visions to shape something unique.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Blake Mosaics Restoration, Surbiton Station
<\/p>\n\n\n\n

I worked as an Artist in Residence at Richmond and Hillcroft Adult Community College (RHACC), where I co-led the restoration of the William Blake-inspired mosaics now installed at Surbiton Station. This community public art project was delivered in partnership with South Western Railway, Network Rail, and the London School of Mosaic, and featured in The Good Life Surbiton<\/em> magazine (Issue 74, April 2024).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Villa Ventorum Mosaic \u2013 The Newt in Somerset<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This mosaic was created for Villa Ventorum<\/em>, a full scale Roman villa reconstruction at The Newt in Somerset. Inspired by classical Roman design, it reflects the artistry and craftsmanship of ancient Britain.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The mosaic was produced at the London School of Mosaics under the guidance of lead artist Lawrence Payne. I was part of the team of mosaicists who brought this work to life using traditional methods and materials, staying true to Roman techniques.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was a privilege to contribute to a piece that now forms part of an educational heritage site, connecting past and present through mosaics.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Further Training in London and Italy – My Work<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

To deepen my understanding of traditional and contemporary mosaic practices, I completed a Diploma in Mosaics at the London School of Mosaics, where I worked on both personal and collaborative public projects. Prior to this, I trained in Italy, learning the fine art of Pietra Dura<\/a> in Florence at the Associazione Difesa Arti Minori A.D.A.M (not existent any more) and the classical Ravenna method at the Mosaic Art School using smalti and natural stone<\/span>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
