“Wish You Were Here” is the third piece in my Seeds of Love mosaic series that is not permanently installed. This ongoing body of work explores the dialogue between graffiti and street art, and how our perception of art shifts when material matters—when it’s made of tile, glass, or mirror rather than paint or spray.
With each mosaic, I “tag” public spaces—sometimes with permission, often without—leaving behind a small, deliberate mark of myself. These works are gifts to those who discover them, unexpected encounters meant to spark connection, reflection, or joy.
Some mosaics have been removed or painted over. Others, surprisingly, have been cared for—cleaned, retouched, and preserved by strangers over time. Their evolving states reflect the shifting relationship between the work, its environment, and those who choose to engage with it.
