MIXED MEDIA MOSAIC ART BY HANNAH TIDECHILD
Hannah Tidechild is a mixed media mosaic artist based in Salida, Colorado. Utilizing stained glass, ceramics, found objects, and up-cycled elements, she creates one of a kind statement pieces for the home.
Specializing in putting glass to bone, Hannah’s mosaic designs are frequently assembled in tandem with large North American animal skulls. These canvases demand celebration, and that’s just what she aims to do. Each animal exudes a certain energy and she approaches each piece as a soul of its own, as it was. Stories of lives once lived are then composed, always amidst a dash of southwestern enchantment.
"Mosaic, for me, is a meditation, a spiritual reflection. I am writing a story, completing a puzzle with unknown endings. Intuition allows a unique composition to emerge, while multitudes of pieces work collectively in form, texture, and color. Modest fragments beget a resplendent whole. I am perceiving and illustrating life through a kaleidoscope."
