A 60 square metre lobby landmark mosaic floor for The University of Iowa
The aim of this feature floor mosaic was to unite the building's theme of Wellbeing, local history and topography. "My idea was to reflect the Iowa River meandering through the landscape as the River of Life, an assembly of hundreds of individual 'life lines' running through a landscape created from patterns derived from local Amish quilts, Basket weaving and Indeginous textiles. The central section is life in balance and the grey edges, life out of balance, and some bursting out completely.
