Mosaic Exhibition by Christian Urpani at The Villa Brasserie, Balluta Bay

Malta Independent Saturday, 14 April 2007, 00:00 Last update: about 13 years ago

The Villa Brasserie, Balluta Bay is hosting the latest mosaic exhibition by Christian Urpani. The exhibition features limited edition pieces in five different colours, all signed by the artist.

Christian creates fascinating mosaics by using unlikely combinations of materials and textures. His latest works display some of the new techniques he has developed. He uses a play of texture and light to create infinite reflections and refractions, in contrast with the flat harshness of natural materials like granite. Christian hand-cuts each piece to achieve the flowing shapes and three dimensional patterns.

Christian is passionate about his work and is on a constant quest for new ideas and interpretations that reflect his character and vision in an unconventional way. His sources of inspiration are nature, space and the universe.

This is not the first time that Christian is featuring his art at Le Méridien St Julian's. Exhibitions were held last year in the foyer of the conference and banqueting area.

The mosaics at the Villa Brasserie (level 1) are for sale and can be viewed every day from 10.30am to 2.30pm and 7.00pm to 10.30pm.
