From 2019-early 2020 lead ceramicist Matilda Moreton and the bet365 best sports betting app School of Mosaic team have made a 3x4 meter copy of a Assyrian mural showing a winged bull for a private client. We custom made each tile creating the figurative relief of the bull, reproducing the original colour scheme with ceramic glazes. The project involved a lot of research around the appropriate drying time for tiles at this thickness to avoid them from breaking when fired, as well as understanding how the original tiles were created - which were in fact bricks. The original of this piece used to be in the Palace of Susa, and a copy can be found in the Louvre in Paris.

Thank you to Amy, Rada, Luke, Norman and Silvie who contributed to the making of the piece.
