We will find the vandals that did this.
No good deed goes unpunished.
It kind of looks the opposite, like that ancient mosaic is being ruined by the asphalt.
That was my first thought as well and then I read the title…
This is really cool.
You’d need a rubbing of the shape or something so you could prep the tiles elsewhere right?
You couldn’t just roll up with the tile cutter.
You can attach the mosaic tiles to a removable mesh fabric like seen in the above video.
That reminds me of the Toynbee Tiles. I think the pothole mosaics are beautiful - any art is better than plain concrete and asphalt. I really like looking for new graffiti in my city on my walks, and my SO and I used to trade photos of a local tagger’s drawing whenever we saw them - especially if we were far from their usual territory.
I love the texture and purpose that visible mending gives things. It reminds me of kintsugi-- repairing ceramics with gold. It makes the object feel so much more special and loved. Like that thing has a history and a complex life story.
Different note: does anyone know if there is a visible mending community already on lemmy?
If there is, or if there’s not but it gets made, I so want to be a part of it
