Project Overview

White Station Middle School Mosaic | East Memphis

For her commission at White Station Middle School, local artist Kristi Duckworth worked with everyone associated with the school, from students, teachers, parents, and administrators to create individual handmade tiles used in the piece. These tiles were used in this extraordinary mosaic described by the Memphis Commercial Appeal as a “masterpiece” upon its completion in 2008.
