Moulin Rouge

£475.00
mosaic
50cm x 52cm

Based on the third film of Baz Luhrmann’s Red Curtain trilogy, my Moulin Rouge mosaic celebrates my favourite musical film. I have tried to incorporate all the important features of the film, including the Green Fairy (Absinthe), and in doing so, I had much fun! The mosaic is made up of a variety of recycled materials, such as ceramic tile, my sister-in-laws ceramic wastage (the elephant), hand-painted glass, diamante jewelry (after all, Diamonds are a Girls Best Friend) , scrabble tiles, broken car window with a sweet wrapper collage below and – tiny pieces but very important – discarded millefiori from Strathearn Paperweights, the factory of which was located in my home town of Crieff, also the home of Ewan McGregor (star of the film)!

Made for the MUsaic exhibition at St Paul's Church, Bow Common London in September/October 2012.
