The Nature of Wholeness

Laura Ruprecht

July 9 - August 9

Opening reception thursday, july 24, 5:00-7:00 PM

Pollinator event & mosaic workshop Saturday, August 9

The Nature of Wholeness” invites viewers to reflect on the fragility and resilience of life through the intricate artistry of hand-cut stained glass mosaics. Each piece reveals the artist’s profound connection to nature and the cycle of life itself. Mosaics, with their fractured yet harmonious beauty, mirror the human experience—marked by fragmentation and the ongoing effort to reassemble our scattered pieces into something meaningful.

Laura uses glass as both material and metaphor to explore themes of imperfection, healing, and transformation. The sharp edges and shimmering surfaces of her mosaics serve as a reminder of life’s paradoxes: the beauty found in brokenness and the strength gained through renewal. These intricate compositions convey the infinite vibrations of life’s messages, inviting viewers to engage in their own journeys of reflection and discovery.

Through her work, Laura celebrates the joy of transformation and the art of finding wholeness in the midst of imperfection.
