More meticulous mosaic artistry has been added in the atrium of the Breuder Advanced Technology & Health Sciences Center. David A. Stabley, instructor of ceramics and wood sculpture, has placed mosaic tiles on two side walls in the space, further enhancing the “center piece” that was completed last June. He and assistant Barbara A. Andreassen, a 2010 graduate in graphic design, completed the intensive tile work Tuesday afternoon and will next grout the art to finalize it. Stabley estimates the current work features approximately 7,000 small black pieces alone, with 35,000 pieces total. The abstract lines of the artwork are meant to parallel the shadows cast into the atrium by sunlight.

These pictures capture this gorgeous artwork perfectly. Working in the ATHS this week and watching this masterpiece come together was pretty cool. Very talented crew, for sure.
Wow! How beautiful! Makes me wish I was still working in the ATHS – what a beautiful way to start the day it would be to see this beautiful mural. This makes our beautiful Penn College even more beautiful!
