Mausloeum of Galla Placidia
The Mausoleum of Galla Placidia, built in 425 A.D., with its unique early Christian mosaics, is one of the eight amazing UNESCO World Heritage sites in the city of Ravenna.
Dimensione Mosaico creates furnishing elements, flower paintings, and even mosaic-decorated book pages. It is part of the collective Racconti Ravennati, born from the meeting of six mosaicists members of CNA Ravenna who, in collaboration with the Linea Rosa Anti-Violence Centre, created the Fiori di Ravenna-Città Amica delle Donne projects and the collective monument Our Skin.
Elisa Brighi and Evelina Garoni, hosts of Dimensione Mosaico, become friends during their school days at the Ravenna Mosaic Art Institute. After working in archaeological restoration, they opened their workshop-laboratory in 2011. In their lovely showroom we can admire both traditional mosaic works, such as copies of Roman and Byzantine mosaics, and their personal, imaginative and poetic works, with an unmistakable style. They combine painting with mosaic, or put different materials together, such as stone, Venetian glass, fabric, ceramics, paper, wood. Their signature feature is the protruding mosaic material: in floral compositions and furnishing objects it creates a three-dimensional effect, enlivening the surfaces. In their workshop you can buy or commission works, or take one of the many traditional and contemporary mosaic courses, suitable for everyone: young and old, groups, individuals and families.
