The sixth New Zealand Mosaic Art National Exhibition 2018 held at Estuary Arts Centre, Orewa, was a brilliant collection of art, created by mosaic artists from throughout New Zealand; works that reflect personal passion and those telling stories about New Zealand, its culture landscape, history, and people. Browse them all. They are beautiful, vibrant, sometimes whimsical and all created by assembling hundreds of small pieces – stained glass, mirror, emu eggshell, smalti, porcelain, ceramic, nuts, screws, beads, tiles, slate, pebbles, stones, brick, pebbles, sand . . .
