Item Description

Lena Vieira of Denver has worked in many mediums but finds glass mosaics to be among her best works.  "I love the building aspect of it; I feel I’m sculpting a painting of sorts," she says.  She chose to adorn her mask with the Cadreceaus, the commonly-used symbol for the medical profession to honor those who devote their lives making hospice patients' final days as comfortable and dignified as possible.
