Good to see a mosaic elephant as part of Norwich’s elephant statue festival (aka Go Elephants!). And what better place than in the Royal Arcade beneath the exotic Neatby tiles. The work is by Kate Munro.

Apparently 10,000 jelly bean tesserae went into the making of this mosaic of George Clooney at the Luxe Hotel in Beverly Hills…

Newly added pictures of the mural mosaic on a recycling theme, at Harold Hill, Romford. Romford is on the outskirts of north east London. The artists involved in this project included the co-founder of the Treatment Rooms.

Known as “les rochers sculptés”, the carved rocks on the coast at Rothéneuf (near St Malo, Brittany, northern France) were the work of Abbé Adolphe Julien Fouré (1839-1910). He sculpted around 300 carvings in a small area of the rocky coastline. He carried out the work at the end of the 19th century, over the course of 25 years. Abbé Fouré was a reclusive priest who was deaf and mute as a result of a stroke. He found self expression in the heads, figures and mythical beasts that he carved from the solid granite overlooking the sea. This collection is considered a classic example of outsider art.
