Ever since childhood, the artist has been fascinated by the art of the mosaic, be it Byzantine mosaic or any other type of image composed by juxtaposing tiles, stones, pieces of paper, plastic or the likes. By learning drawing and painting techniques, he created his own language through which to interpret an image and "translate" it into mosaic form, using acrylics on canvas to paint the pieces comprising it and take the concept of mosaic to a new dimension where each component is imprinted with a character all its own with regard to predominant color, light and shadow as well as some calligraphic effects. The end result is a ďŹ gurative piece of artwork consisting of hundreds of tiny abstracts.
