West Perrine, Florida

Exterior mosaic for the front of the DOH’s new facility. The work portrays the daily life of the people of this community. Five mosaic panels (5’x6’ each) highlight a lifestyle in which daily activities allow people to engage in cultural exchanges. The palm trees, mango trees, and ocean serve as the unifying backdrop to daily life; people going to work and school, a game of chess, people fishing along the shore, and musicians at sunset.

Ceramic tile, Venetian glass, and smalti on cement fiber board.
