Herban Apotheka Mosaic- UD Landscape Design Commission- Philly Flower Show
dark grout, wood glue, mosaic tile, stones, rocks, broken glassware, beads
5ft x 3ft x 1/5in
I was commissioned to do this piece by the Landscape Design department here for their exhibition at the Philly flower show. The design I created was based on the theme of the show "healing plants". I used symbols like the hummingbird, the opening of the hands, the rabbit and the butterfly for peace and wellness. I also incorporated the flowers and plants that were in the show, including things like lavender/sage/thyme bundles at the top, the white and orange echinacea flowers, and added things like bees, and tendrils to connect it all. I used the darker grout to bring out the highlights and the colors better, as well as help blend in the pebbled background which was to imitate rich soil.
