Answer to Question 1

Answers will vary depending on artists selected.

Answer to Question 2

Answers will vary. Like fresco, mosaic is well suited to decorating architectural surfaces such as walls and ceilings. Unlike fresco, however, mosaic is sturdy enough to stand up to the elements, and so it can be used for floors and outdoor surfaces as well. Mosaics are often used to instill character and remarkable beauty to various public places, as in Nancy Spero's Artemis Acrobats, Divas, and Dancers.
