Camden Wall Mosiac Frieze

Artist: Tom Thoune

Category Placemaking

Details

The 33 mosaics along Camden Road at the East/West Boulevard Light Rail is the result of an enthusiastic collaboration between South End Residents and local artist Tom Thoune.  In 2005, Thoune gathered donations of plates, glass and broken ceramics from South End residents through a community collection arranged in conjunction with McColl Center for Visual Art, then recycled and combined them with his own handmade ceramics.  The materials were used to make a mosaic frieze spanning 360 feet that tell a story about South End and its surrounding neighborhoods.
