Size: 6.25”x6.25” framed Tesserae: Stained glass, tempered glass, Murano millefiori, glass stringers, glass nuggets, alcohol ink and a mirrored charm. About ‘Paco sur la Tero’: When I thought about what artwork embodied the spirit of Doctors without Borders, my thoughts went to Peter Max’s painting titled “ Without Borders”. This painting and its utopian vision inspired my mosaic. The title, ‘Paco sur la Tero’ is in the international language of Esperanto. Translated, it simply means ‘Peace on Earth’. About Me: I have been making mosaics for several years. Stained glass is one of my favorite materials to work with. Its wide range of colors and textures can be cut to create a myriad of patterns and shapes making this my choice medium for mosaics. I find inspiration for my work from a wide variety of sources, from nature and photography to social issues and works of fantasy. Mosaics are a creative outlet and relaxing break from my job as a nurse. I have great respect for the employees of Doctors Without Borders/Médecins Sans Frontières and feel honored to participate in this benefit. Lori Meade New Jersey, USA
