On Monday in Buxton Project eARTh, participants started to stick their mosaics pieces to the cement board being used for the final artwork. Artist MakeMosaic by Tracey Cartledge showed each person how to apply the adhesive to the cement board, and then add their fruit and vegetables! So far we have an aubergine, courgette, parsnips, carrots, a cauliflower and some strawberries on the boards! Next week to add flowers, more strawberries, apples, and pears !
The group are making two mosaics for Townend Community Garden in Chapel – en – le Frith.
As only a few people at a time can work on this part of the process, other participants worked on their mosaic pieces to take home, and on creating some fruit, flower and vegetable collages.
