If the value of the arts is measured by how much they care for man, mosaic will easily top the list, because its material alone provides a feast for the eye. When this delicious material is used by an artist who has some joy to share with us and who is a master of his/her craft, even the darkest and most gloomy space can turn into paradise.

A craftsman processes stone or other hard materials into a work of art as light as paper and hangs it on a wall to indicate that intellectual work has reconciled with masterful manual work through a deep affection in the material.
