New Ravenna recently introduce the Kiddo: Wunderkammer Edition of mosaics by Cean Irminger, New Ravenna creative director. The six whimsical designs are the result of an imaginative journey through Irminger’s 17 years as a mosaic designer. The Kiddo: Wunderkammer Edition explores the essence of childhood and is fabricated by hand from a myriad of elements, including stone, brass, aluminum, shell, 24k gold, antiqued mirror and jewel glass.
“Arrow Rows” is in homage to Irminger's father who is a world-class arrowhead hunter. In "Caroushell," seahorses and rococo shells transform a traditional brocade into a maritime adventure. Irminger, a fan of puns and creative language, designed “Subway!” as a play on vernacular subway tile with city metros gliding across the familiar glass bricks. “Personal Space” caters to dreaming young minds that wish to travel to faraway galaxies. “Tzarry Tzarry Night” takes us to a gilded age storybook kingdom, and sinuous mythical dragons cavort in the “Here Be Dragons” mosaic border.
