10 CONTEMPORARY MOSAIC ARTISTS TO TURN YOUR MOSAIC MINDSET UPSIDE DOWN
(3 min read)
Though mosaics date back to the 3rd millennium BC, this art is going through an unheard of rebirth. We’ve assembled the selection of artists that, in our opinion, are making a huge contribution to the contemporary mosaic art movement.
SERGIO POLICICCHIO
Sergio Policicchio skillfully balances photography, mosaics, and installation. His naturally “imperfect” tesserae that dramatically ranges in size breathes life into forms too flawless to be created by a human.
MARIE-LAURE BOURBON
The mosaic designs of Marie-Laure float between metaphor and actual natural phenomena. Her sparkling tesserae decodes anything from frozen rivers to unseen galaxies.
BEATRICE SERRE
In her futuristic tile mosaic artworks, Beatrice Serre rediscovers past. In her Big Bang series, she “restored” the big moment of our universe.
LAURA HARRIS
River stones, bicycle gear, or ceramic tiles – nothing sinks into oblivion with Laura Harris. According to the mosaicist, that’s how she pulls the fragmented world together.
NATHALIE VIN
Her mosaic artworks tell stories. The famous “Multiverse” (smaltis, lego pieces, and clockwork parts, just to name a few) creates a show-stopping 3D illusion. How not to get lost in it?
JULIE SPERLING
Sperling’s works bear the message to both current “epoch-alypse” generation and the future one. Her jaw-dropping “We Were Here Now” is no way about humankind’s accomplishments.
LYNNE CHINN
No words, just a fact – her tile mosaic designs are slightly billowing in the wind.
ANGELA ZIMEK
Angela Zimek merges graphics with mosaic art. Her Atmen [Breathing] series is a breath of fresh air.
JULIE RICHEY
Julie Richey utilizes “the innate opulence of mosaic materials” to craft unexpected forms. Will you dare to put on this piece of “draping” mosaics on?
GIULIO MENOSSI
The whimsical arcs of Giulio Menossi are no strangers to everything – from lego pieces to traditional marble. You’ll never stop finding new curves and details in this colorful intricacy.
These are only the icing of the “mosaic” cake. How about the filling?

I have to be honest: I know nothing about mosaic art. Reading about these artists, and seeing some of their stuff, I am impressed!
I love mosaic! This is like nothing I have ever seen before. The talent here is out of this world. Fantastic!
Oh! These artists are amazing! I absolutely love all the pictures! I particularly liked JULIE RICHEY‘s work! Thanks for sharing!
Wonderful knowing about this art. The pics are beautiful. And the way you have demonstrated is so refreshing. Thank you. There is no end to learning.
These instalations are all so wonderful! I remember taking part in such an exhibition in Bristol, where the mosaic art work was combined with metal, lights and sound. It was an amazing experience.
What wonderful pieces of work. They are all stunning! I love the Sergio Policicchio piece that you’ve featured.
Gosh these are SPECTACULAR. I have never seen mosaics like these. I love them, they are full of movement and passion. Thanks for sharing these with us!
LAURA HARRIS work really get my vote and attracted my attention the most. I like how river stones, bicycle gear are used. Truly outstanding piece.

Beautiful pieces! My father does mosaic artwork and I have a real appreciation for this medium when it is well done.
these are all so amazing! theres a few pieces i’d love to have on my wall
This is incredible . The patience that it took to think and design each and every piece of art work is remarkable.
While all of them are beautiful, I especially like the one with bicycle gears. It’s got an awesome steam punk feel to it.
I’ve always been fansicnted by moasics, wish I had the talent for them. These artists are gifted, so beautiful.
Wow! These mosaics are absolutely incredible! Every single one. It’s not what I expected when I first read the title. Really love how three-dimensional most of them are. More sculpture than mosaic – but then on closer inspection, of course they’re mosaics. You opened my eyes to an art form I thought I didn’t care that much for. I do now! Thank you so much!
