Description
Original, Shattered Vinyl Mosaic.
In another first for the George Thornton Gallery, we’re proud to present “It’s a Gas, Gas, Gas” from master mosaicist Ed Chapman’s ‘Smash Hits’ series.
This is the Mosaic Man’s tribute to the classic 'Hot Lips' logo and songs of rock perennials the Rolling Stones. And what better way to pay homage to founder members and soon-to-be octogenarians Mick and Keith than a unique art work created using the very songs they wrote together?
It’s no exaggeration to say this mosaic is unlike any other, cleverly combining regal rock music with Modern Pop Art. His Satanic Majesty Prince Jones would doubtless smile at this delightful way to acknowledge the band he began and at 85x85cm, “It’s A Gas, Gas, Gas” is a real talking point and a certainty to transform any wall space for the better.

Artist
Taking the age-old medium of mosaics to an exciting and modern place, Ed Chapman creates ‘firsts’ in mosaic, unique portraits of iconic faces shown in a completely new way. Ed uses fragments of ceramic or stone tile, slate, vinyl, even on one occasion bullet casings to explore the idea of our own fragmented lives and personalities.
Ed’s work has been exhibited across the UK since 1997 from Mayfair to Manchester, as well as in California, New York City and in museums across North America since 2010. His work is sold in the UK and Europe, North America, Asia, Africa, the Far East and the Middle East, and his corporate commissions include a series of mosaics for UK Revolution Bars.
Members of the Saudi Royal family and international musicians Annie Lennox and Motorhead’s late frontman Lemmy have bought and commissioned portraits. Richard Burton’s widow Sally commissioned a portrait of her late husband in 500 million-year-old Welsh slate.
In 2012 won an innovation award for a stone tile mosaic of David Bowie made for his 65th birthday – widely covered in the media and featured on the front of The Sunday Times
