Collector’s Corner: Lynn Adamo

Lynn Adamo writes: I’ve been collecting mosaics from artists’ exchanges for many years. All of them are hanging either in my studio or in my house. A few prized works I’ve purchased: a piece by Lynn Moor, years ago, and more recently, a sweet little fox by Rachel Sager, and one of the collaboration that Rachel and Sophie Drouin created. Since my first trip to Ravenna in 2013, I’ve been collecting some of Luca Barberini’s finestras from the Via di Roma 136 series. They bring me joy every day when I do yoga! The groupings on various walls are arranged by size, and color, and how they feel to me at the time of hanging. And they move around from time to time! Many of my works are sprinkled in the mix.

Homage to Paint by Lynn Moor
