Glass mosaic

Mont-Saint-Michel

The Mount against the light, blue on a golden sky, with two beached boats.

The abbey’s silhouette doubles itself in the water of the bay. In the foreground lie the sands, the salt meadows and the boats the tide has left behind. Glass is very good at the one thing painters have always chased here, which is light that changes by the minute. In front of this mosaic, you are the tide.

About the series

A mosaic is built, not painted: the pieces of glass are cut and set one by one on a wooden panel. Light plays in the glass, shifts the colour with the hour and the angle, and turns the panel into something alive.
