The virtual mosaic symposium: Sardinia, Ploaghe

The virtual mosaic symposium finished on its virtual Facebook page. The theme of the symposium was dedicated to the personality of Giordano Bruno, a great Italian scientist and naturalist. Mosaic review provides a brief overview of this mosaic world event.

For four years now, in sunny Sardinia, the famous Italian mosaic artist Giulio Menossi together with his partners from Sardinia, have been holding an international mosaic symposium, in which many artists from all over the world took part.

The virus pandemic made adjustments to the organization of symposium this year and the organizers decided to create an online symposium.

Theme: BRUNO GIORDANO

-Maryse: "here is my translation from story to mosaic:
''His robe, drenched in red blood, dangles above the stake on the campo de fiori in Rome.
Surrounded by countless galaxies, each with their own planets and stars, in many shapes, colors, and substances. My own star constellation ‘Cancer’ is in gold because gold is my signature. the golden ribbon of the river Tiber dance freely between dream and reality.""My triptych is a tribute to Bruno's ideas, life and death. He believed in the incomprehensible infinity of chaos, harmony and balance,that there is not one ‘God’ but that God is in ‘Everything’.I name my work after one of his many quotes: 

'Desire urges me on, while fear bridals

'Bruno died for his truth, while I can freely translate his dream through my creativity and share it with you here today. Thank you."
