Panel 166: Subtidal PassageKunamokst Mural Mosaic unveiled at the Winter Olympics
A community of artists brought together by a creative group of visionaries has taken the Photo-Mosaic concept to a whole new level. Kirsten created Subtidal Passage (pictured) for an Art-Mosaic—Panel 166. Over 200 artists collaborated to create a stunning 12 foot x 21 foot mural, although artists did not know what the image the final mural would reveal while creating the panels. The mural is comprised of 231, 12 inch x 12 inch original paintings. More about the Kunamokst Mural Project...
