Southbank Mosaics / London School of Mosaic

Southbank Mosaics actively promotes equal opportunities and cross-cultural, inter-generational mosaic art work. The studio aims to draw on the historic roots of local neighbourhoods traversed by Shakespeare, Blake and Dickens, and more recently by Charlie Chaplin, Bob Marley, Daley Thompson and Imran Khan - to name but a few.

The picture source website has a map giving the locations of many of their installations.

Our image came from the website years ago but since they changed their name to London School of Mosaic so has the website name, now lsomosaic.com
