The Global Roots Tile Project
Mural Mosaic has been connecting communities, businesses, schools and teams since 2003.
Their passion is unity through diversity. They see the mosaic murals as community connectors……
connecting one tile at a time to create a moving mosaic legacy of a moment in time.
They are grateful for the opportunity to have worked with so many incredible organizations to celebrate their milestones and to create lasting memories in these beautiful expressions of mosaic art murals.
When I read about the project online I decided I wanted to be a part of it.
I’ve always loved the giant murals…. collected artwork tiles by a collaboration of people…. and it seemed like the time was right to add my own tile.
Online it says…..
Imagine a world covered in diverse expressions of art from people everywhere!
Global Roots will be planting mosaic art tree murals in communities around the world.
The world map is like a dream board. Global Roots is reaching out to create as many murals as possible around the world to reconnect us all to our roots.
Roots of our communities, homes and families. Also, the roots of sharing, giving and connection.
The inspiration behind the project is to (re)ignite and (re)inspire our world back to what matters most - our connections to one another.
We are a mosaic of individual strengths and differences and together we are one united work of art.
This really speaks to my heart.
I randomly received the “Blue tile kit” which included the 6 X 6 tile, the paint in the right gradations, 2 brushes, a small art stand, and all the information about the project.
One can paint anything they want as long as it’s within the colour scheme one receives. I decided to do a self portrait of an image of me on our Canadian Tour with our new music.
I’m excited to see the finished ‘tree’!
