Kinzie West Building, Chicago, IL
Artwork by Lynn Basa
In May of 2007, Mosaika installed a 500 sq. ft. mosaic in Claremont California, designed by public artist Lynn Basa. In 2010, we will be installing its ‘sister’ piece for the Kinzie West Building in Chicago Ill. Based on a series of paintings created for the first “Grove” project, this new artwork will be fabricated entirely from smalti, and will cover 150 sq. ft.
