A THREE-DAY WOW WORKSHOP WITH A LEGEND!
Luca Barberini
Luca Barberini was born in 1981 in Ravenna, the true Mecca of mosaics. In a city like this you hardly have a chance to grow up anything but a mosaicist, and Luca went to get his degree in the Gino Severini Art Institute.
In 2005, together with his wife Arianna Gallo, he opens Koko Mosaico - a studio where, like in WOW Mosaic School, they teach both experienced artists and beginners.
Critics say that Luca´s works are "pushing the boundaries of mosaic techniques" and note their "remarkable originality and power of expression". He regularly collaborates with famous modern artists, participates in international mosaics symposiums and displays his art at personal and joint exhibitions.
