So inspired by the Opus Sectile (a practice dating back to antiquity) marble floors of St Mark’s Basilica in Venice, Bridie drew variations of her own. Unlike the Byzantines, she was fundamentally lacking in access to great quantities of precious marbles from the sacred and civic buildings of the Eastern Roman Empire, so she’s printed her collection out as a range of patterned papers instead!
