A 'dreamed tree' representation of the huge 700 square-foot Tree of Life mosaic on the floor of Otranto Cathedral sets the scene in the gallery.

The Tree of Life represents more than you want to read about right now!. What struck me each time I saw the mosaic in Otranto was the visual meeting of bits and pieces of East and West, of Greek myth, Christianity, astrology and Islam; I ushered in that feeling here.
