Gabriella Grama: Mosaic Artist

Trained in the art of classical mosaics, Long Island artist Gabriella Grama exhibits at art galleries and museums throughout the Island. She also frequently works on community projects involving large-scale mural mosaics, collaborating with community members and conducting mosaic workshop sessions.

Ms. Grama says mosaics are a versatile and flexible medium in which anything can be used. Old pieces of china, broken glass, pebbles, shells, grains, bark, and sand are examples of some of her materials. “Mosaics are lasting and, like no other medium, extremely fresh and innovative as there are no restrictions to what can be used or repurposed in constructing them,” she says.

Swimming Camp, Photography Camp, Medical Boot Camp, and more!

Continually learning new techniques, she pushes the boundaries of one medium into the other, experimenting with a variety of media and blurring the lines between mosaics and fused glass.

A selection of Ms. Grama’s works are on display in the Syosset Library Gallery through April.

Syosset Library is located at 225 South Oyster Bay Road in Syosset. For more information about programs, services, and hours, call 516-921-7161, or visit the library or the website at www. syossetlibrary.org.
