Marzia Dottarelli - Awakening My art emanates from the intensive study of ancient inspirational mosaic techniques. Over the past few years, I have immersed myself in them, studying and interpreting them. Initially, I followed the route of the craftsmen, analysing and deepening, where possible, both old and new methods. Whilst working with glass materials, I realised that, if used abiding to certain criteria, I could create very modern works of contemporary art. Primary objectives of softness and paintings During the course of my studies, I set myself several goals to streamline the static and rigid impact of traditional mosaics. My first challenge was to follow drawing methods to soften a mosaic's coldness and inflexibility, to make it look as much as possible like a painting, removing the peculiarities inherent to the mosaic's very technique. Working on nude models, I attained two objectives. First of all, I improved my knowledge of proportions by studying human physiology. Secondly, I created soft works of art with flexible alignments, inventing new dynamic models. I subsequently fulfilled my overarching goal of creating my unique pictorial mosaic.

Artists Describing Their Art:
Diana Donici - Donart workshop came out of passion, the main ingredient for every succesfull activity. For us, the mosaic is the most fascinating part of all plastic arts: first of all, for its unicity and complexity, then for its resistance in time and never getting old-fashioned. And the last but not the least, for the huge passion that comes out of the mosaic artist during dozens or even hundreds of hours of work for a single project. At Donart workshop, we mainly use colored glass for making mosaics, for its proved higher standards compared to ceramic. For sacred themes, such as icons and mural mosaics, we insert pure gold, most of it of 24K. We are specialised in sacred mosaic, but we are glad to work any artistic theme. We invite you to check our gallery, the blog, and also the updated Facebook profile and page:Marzia Dottarelli - Awakening My art emanates from the intensive study of ancient inspirational mosaic techniques.
