Review of "Transposition" by Lynn Adamo

A groundbreaking exhibition recently closed in Seattle. Mounted in the Inscape Arts facility, the former INS building, Transposition gathered 15 artists from the Americas in a site-specific show. I was honored to be among this group of artists who are leading the charge in taking mosaic to be recognized as a legitimate expression of contemporary fine art. Nancie Mills Pipgras, editor of Mosaic Art Now, wrote an excellent review of the show. You can read it here, and view some of the works she specifically refers to. I highly recommend reading this article. I'm so excited about where contemporary mosaic art will is going!

The piece I had in the show is called A Long Road. I wrote a blog post about it in March, which you can read here. Here I am viewing it in the exhibition last April:

The inaugural show will feature a group of local artists. The grand opening is  Sunday June 2  from noon to 6:00pm. The show will run till July 29. See the library website for location and hours. I'll be showing my works Navy Pier and Untitled in this show.

Installation begins by Lynn Adamo

With the help of expert tile installer Peter Bral, the utility room wall backsplash was installed today. I was a tad nervous heading into this step. Wondering if all the measuring and cutting was really done properly! Things went quite well, and pretty quickly! Next Monday we will install the west wall— the sink and window wall. Then I have to finish cutting all the field tile to inlay the stove wall and east wall. It's getting there!

One last section to put up.
