I worked for months making glass tiles and then assembling them in a mosaic that would tell my story. Egyptian tombs have always fascinated me and I wanted to make something in that style. Throughout the process, I filmed and photographed the process to later make into this video.

“amor fati” means “love your fate.”

“amor fati” is approximately 4 feet tall and three feet wide. It weighs close to a hundred lb.

I believe that any archaeologist can clearly determine that this says, ” An artist married a foodie in 1985.” After the scarab went in, this is where the story would start.

The mosaic features many of the mosaics that I have created in my career. The one she is currently working on in the mosaic is the one I was working on… a huge scarab (roughly the size of her head as is the huge scarab feature of this mosaic.)

In most of my mosaics, I take time to figure out a signature. Initially, the signature was going to be embedded in the matrix numbers in the “cracks of the wall.” Then in researching for this project, I discovered that a cartouche is actually kind of a signature so I took liberties in designing my own.

This is a detail of the artwork that the main character has created in her story… and mine.

This photo is to help illustrate the dimension of this mosaic

All of the hieroglyphs help tell my story.

… and lotus flowers help the story along too.
