Mosaic artist Livia Radu Kerr, is originally from Bucharest, Romania. Livia’s one-of-a-kind slate mosaics are meticulously handcrafted, utilizing a variety of materials including stone,
smalti (specialized mosaic glass), hand-pulled filati (artisan fused glass rods), raku ceramic, and metal wire. Among these materials, slate holds a special place in her heart for its strength, delicate qualities, and diverse color and texture options.
Beyond the visual appeal of her art, Livia believes in the therapeutic power of the mosaic-making process. She finds mindfulness and tranquility in the meticulous placement of individual pieces, creating cohesive and unique works each time. Driven by internal passion and emotion, Livia’s paintings are described as bold and powerful, reflecting her zest for life.
Livia says, “In my artistic journey, I embrace the unknown. Uncertain of where each placement of mosaic piece will lead, I allow inspiration and emotion to guide me. When experimenting with slate mosaics, I trust in the process, allowing it to lead me to the concept I dream of.”
