Mosaic Sculpture

Since prehistoric times, sculptures were an experimental art for humans to express beauty and interact with nature and religion. The ancient cultures of Egypt and Mesopotamia made great sculptural artworks. Their sculptures are monolithic with a great ritual significance and are beyond visual contemplation. For Native Americans however, their artworks were a way of gratitude to nature creating a superb and complicated technique with a unique style. Whereas for the Asian culture, sculptures are a developed art commemorating Gods and Goddesses.

Today, the art of sculpturing is a lot more voluminous and enormously imaginative manifesting shocking series of phenomenon. Sculptures do not just transcend installations and environments but also materials and techniques. Sculptors express their absolute devotion with the expansion of terms and tenacious energy making the artworks inexhaustible. A shift in creativity is made by sculptors, ceramists and mosaic artists to transform the traditional art of sculpting and mosaic tiling into a marvelous castle in the sky.
