ReclaimedMosaics was born out of owner, Dawn Briskey's, passion about making mosaics, especially out of found objects. She took her first mosaic class at the Chicago Mosaic School in 2009. Not long after, she started to see objects to be mosaicked all around her neighborhood. An old piano bench at the end of the alley, a discarded box of stained glass scraps, an old bowling ball, wooden windows and more have showed up in her life, as if crying out to be rescued through mosaics. Before long, Dawn's garage and basement were spilling over with these items. In 2013, she began to sell her work, to make room for new pieces, and to share her art with a broader community.
