"Galaxy Mosaic" by OneHouse Arts

Sponsored by the Arts & Culture Commission

"Galaxy Mosaic" recreates the brilliant colors of deep space within the Adams Square Mini Park Gas Station.

Galaxy Mosaic recreates the brilliant colors of deep space within the Adams Square Mini Park Gas Station. Students’ transparent acrylic paintings of space cover the windows, allowing sunlight to create stained-glass refraction and shadows that move throughout the day with the shifting sun, our closest star. In the center of the room, dozens of foam globes decorated with mosaic patterns hang as a jewel box of distant stars and unknown planets. Over 100 students participated in this piece.

OneHouse Arts is an experimental art school and philosophy dedicated to helping children discover art on their own through inquiry and exploration. OneHouse Arts combines the spirit of active research, art experimentation, and self-expression with the cognitive development process of children to improve their growing aesthetic ability and image communication skills while ultimately establishing a more intimate relationship between people and art.

This temporary art installation is generously sponsored by the Glendale Arts and Culture Commission through funding from the Urban Art Program, and support from Glendale Library, Arts & Culture, Glendale Community Services and Parks, and the Adams Hill Neighborhood Association.
