The Community Mosaic
By learning to make bits-and-pieces mosaics from broken china and
found objects, students will explore the metaphors of community
building that the mosaic art form offers. Such metaphors include the
mosaic’s assurance that from brokenness beauty can emerge and that
from diverse parts a creative whole can be formed. As part of this
exploration, students will design a group mosaic project with themes
related to issues of school, community, and/or ecological healing.
This project can be implemented as several mosaic panels to be
displayed in school common areas or a stepping stone garden for a
school outdoor classroom area or local park.
