Crafted by the skilled hands of fine artist Jonathan Mandell, this captivating public commission at Lankenau Medical Center in Wynnewood, PA stands as a testament to creative brilliance and expert art installation. Spanning an impressive 10 feet by 7 feet, the masterpiece boasts a mesmerizing fusion of ceramic tile, hand-blown glass shards, lapidary stones, and other exquisite materials. Mandell has earned renown for his ability to transform wall-mounted panels into what he aptly terms “tactile paintings.”
The enormity of the task at hand was undeniable. With over 30 intricate glass tile mosaic sections, the installation presented a formidable challenge. Mounting the fragile piece to a porcelain tile wall above a staircase, reaching heights of 22 feet, demanded precision and expertise in art installation.
Undeterred, our dedicated crew embarked on a mission of ingenuity. Utilizing a genie scissor lift posed initial challenges, but through innovative thinking, a custom wooden platform was devised. This ingenious solution facilitated the art installation process, ensuring the artwork’s secure placement.
With unwavering determination, our team achieved success in the art installation and the piece is on display for the public to enjoy. Mandell’s effusive praise speaks volumes:
“Thanks again for all of your efforts. My piece was installed perfectly!”
