Tessellation Rumbling

The Exquisite Tessellation Project has been ramping up:

Laser cut tessellation "hat" tiles,
with borders (making a 6x6 inch square)

We gave Julie Sola a "hat" tile 
in Santa Fe on May 5, 2024

We gave Mike Kimball a "hat" tile 
in Santa Fe on May 5, 2024


Artists have been delivering tessellation linocuts gradually, but steadily:
