Artist Brigitte Jurack
As part of the Rising Darkness exhibition by Brigitte Jurack, there are opportunities to join the artist in making a shared mosaic.
Historical evidence suggests that major mosaic schemes were undertaken by teams of people who shared the time-consuming task of slowly laying out the design on the floors of domestic houses, temples or assembly halls.
This new mosaic is inspired by an unswept floor found in a Roman villa in Aquileia but is politicised to include modern debris and specially trained landmine-sniffing rats.
Workshop dates:
- Friday 18 July, 1pm – 3pm, learning suite on ground floor (for group bookings only)*
- Tuesday 12 August, 1pm – 3pm, learning suite on ground floor

*For booking groups of seven or more people, please contact vgm@liverpool.ac.uk and ask to attend the workshop on Friday 18 July.
