Mosaic Revival: Three Contemporary Expressions touches on the complexity and versatility of the ever-evolving, captivating, and formidable art form of mosaics. Shining a spotlight on this ancient medium, B.C. artists Daryl Wood, Lilian Broca, and Maria Abagis challenge the viewer’s perception of what a mosaic is, and its relevance in the art world today.

Join the artists for the exhibition’s opening reception on May 1 from 6 pm to 8 pm. There will also be an artist talk with Wood, Broca, and Abagis on May 24 from 2 pm to 4 pm. Both events are free.

Mosaic Revival runs from May 2 to June 6 at CityScape Community ArtSpace, which is open Wednesday to Saturday from 11 am to 5 pm.

Learn more about the exhibition through North Van Arts.
