Bus Stop - Vulcanesti
Unknown — 1960s-1980s
Description
This bus stop in Vulcanesti is built of rough concrete aggregate, its heavy roof carried by a wall in a half circle and a central supporting column. The walls are lined with mosaics that form seven large circular medallions filled with branching trees and floral motifs. The trees recall the folk motif of the tree of life, representing a connection to ancestors, the cycle of life, fertility, and spiritual growth. The tesserae are consist of irregular pieces, likely hand makes. The patterns remain legible, if muted by dirt and fading.
