Pioneer School Community Mosaic
This mosaic mural project was supported by Socios Unidos para Artes via Educacion (SUAVE) and approved by the Unified School District of Escondido, California. Emerson went on a “treasure hunt” asking each class at Pioneer Elementary School “What is community?” The students responded with drawings of nature, family, friends and learning. She put their ideas into the design and each child at the school placed their “tessera” into this 9’ long by 5’ high mural located at the school entrance. Completed June 2001.
