Mosaics are one of the oldest and most beautiful art forms known to civilizations. Dating back over 4000 years to ancient Greece, they are basically the art of creating patterns with glass, tile, stones and other similar items. The 6th grade looked at and discussed various types of mosaics before we began our project. As the 6th graders prepare this year for the sacrament of Confirmation, we thought it would be fitting to create their own mosaic, depicting the Holy Spirit.
These mosaics were created by colorful cut paper on black backgrounds. The results were spectacular!
