Cyphers (of Past and Present Dancers)

Cyphers (of Past and Present Dancers) is a custom vitreous glass mosaic frieze fabricated by Artaic in collaboration with Miami-based artist Rhea Leonard. Translated from Leonard’s original drawings, the installation features eight dancers in motion, rendered in vitreous glass tile to capture rhythm, gesture, and flow across the architectural entryway. Inspired by the cultural history of Miami’s Brownsville neighborhood, the project reflects Artaic’s ability to transform expressive, artist-driven imagery into durable, large-scale public art through contemporary mosaic fabrication.
