APS Jackson Middle School Mosaic Installation

Digital illustration on polymer mosaic tiles | 2023

The mosaic installation at Jackson Middle School fills a 40-foot elevator shaft with a vibrant depiction of the school's mascot, the jaguar. It started as a digital illustration, which was printed onto polymer mosaic tiles. At the heart of the piece is the jaguar, surrounded by jungle plants. The design uses the negative space between the plants to create hidden bird silhouettes, offering a fun element of discovery for anyone who looks closely. The artwork brings together the school’s identity with a sense of nature and wildlife.
