Sure it took 5 years, but finally the second installment of the ‘Evidence’ series has arrived. Most mosaics are discovered incomplete. Being buried for a few thousand years will do that to art. Purposely ‘found’ but not intact, this piece suggests that if you look a little closer, you might find hints of today’s consumerism existing in the artwork of days long past. (Ask me about the story of this piece surviving being run over by

a car.)
