Ball of String

105 cm sq
Pebbles, cement grout, oxides, fixed to compressed cement sheet
Mosaic Artist: René Schaefer

Pebbles were chosen for this mosaic to provide a material contrast with the subject (the ball of string). The 'string', rendered with uncut pebbles, sits proud of the encircling field of cut stones, lending the piece a plastic quality.
