Answers may vary, but should include at least 2 examples: When creating a mosaic or a collage, the artist is combining pieces to created an arrangement, whether it be a specific image, a pattern, or some other desired combination. With both, the art is not in the components, but in the arrangement of the components. They are different however, in that collages tend to be less specific in the types of objects used to create the final piece and the surface it is placed on. Mosaic are most often created with tiles or some type of stone. They are also usually embedded in some type of concrete, rather then using a glue or other adhesive to paste the objects. mosaics are normally a part of floors, ceiling, or walls, rather than portable pieces of art.

Mosaics are images made by arranging stones or tiles and embedded with a filler to connect colored shapes.

This piece is “El Drac” at Park Güell, designed by Antoni Gaudí. It was created using trencadís, a mosaic technique that covers a surface with small pieces of broken tile and glass. The bright colors and winding patterns make me think of a magical creature, and they make me feel cheerful and curious. I like this piece because the many small pieces come together to create a lively, detailed sculpture.

Mosaics and collages both combine smaller elements into a larger composition, and both can use color, shape, and texture to create an image or design. They can be representational or abstract. Mosaics are usually made from small, hard pieces such as tile, glass, or stone, while collages often use paper, photographs, or found materials. Mosaic pieces are set into a surface, whereas collage materials are generally glued on and may overlap.

Those elements combine to form a new composition.

Mosaics are created by arranging small pieces of colored stone, glass, or tile into a picture and setting them onto a surface. In this mosaic, the artist used contrasting pieces to form the walking soldiers, carts, and animals against a dark blue background. Mosaics are usually used to decorate floors and walls in buildings. They can also be used on other surfaces, such as ceilings.
