In celebration of our 10th Anniversary, the New England Mosaic Society is delighted to present “Ten Years On The Cutting Edge”, a juried exhibition featuring the work of our members.
Since 2015, the New England Mosaic Society has been promoting mosaics as a fine art, through exhibitions, quality educational programming, and the chance to share techniques and experiences within an encouraging and supportive group. Whether a professional artist or a novice, all people who share our passion about this medium are welcome to join, and we now have over 140 members throughout New England.
Over our ten years together, we’ve been heartened by the wonderful responses we have received from viewers whose past experiences of mosaics may have been limited to examples from ancient history. But, as many have discovered, mosaics as an art form is constantly stretching and expanding to be used in endlessly different ways. This exhibition features work made from multitudes of materials, used in unexpected and compelling ways, which completely relate to our current world and circumstances.
We are thrilled to be presenting our members’ latest creations in this beautiful space at The Art Complex Museum.
