Out of the Blue
Elaine M Goodwin with Gerald Domingue.
May 2025 - March 2026
Galerie D’Art, Elaine M Goodwin, Couches, Burgundy, France.
The exhibition brings together
art and science.
Elaine has asked the distinguished American medical researcher Dr. Gerald Domingue, who has painted alongside his scientific academic career throughout his life, to join her in a celebration of Nature.
Nature is explored through paint and through glass, in its many forms, dynamics and mysteries. The predominant colour in this exhibition will centre on the colour blue.
This pigment, rarely found within nature itself, has often obsessed artists (Picasso, Matisse, Yves Klein, van Gogh) It is the colour we observe in the sky and the sea, and is rich in symbolism - evoking serenity, inspiration and contemplation.
Elaine M. Goodwin is a world-renowned English artist who specialises in mosaic. Her work is found in numerous national and private art collections. She is a frequent international exhibitor.

This is a novel about the Fourth Crusade, the one launched by Pope Innocent III which ended up sacking Constantinople, the greatest city in Christendom.
And why does it feature on the Home page of Mosaic Matters? Two reasons - the author is your Editor, Paul Bentley, and of course mosaic pops up now and then - there is even a description of how the Byzantines made their wall mosaics. More...
