An Outstanding Video

[Wayne]

Yesterday Sonia  posted this York Five Sisters video on a mosaic forum about Emma Biggs.  Both have been working together for a year on a new collaborative book.  Enjoy the video:  http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_uCp79AWr6o

A note about the video: "Emma Biggs and Matthew Collings talk about the art installation (mosaic/painting) about to open in in York. The mosaic is a temporary project using 13th century pottery shards from an archeological collection. Wonderful insight into the minds of two great artists. "

Wow Vic, really nice pictures..now THERE's some detail.  I can't imagine how long it must have taken to build these windows.  Unbelievable.

Thanks for posting these!  De
