The course introduces contemporary mosaic according to the Scuola Mosaicisti del Friuli in Spilimbergo, bringing together Italy’s great craft tradition and contemporary artistic research. Marble, Venetian smalti and other stone materials become expressive tools for interpreting form, light and matter with creative freedom.
