LC0419

A composition about a bow. Broad mirrored bands are tied into loose loops and knots that hover in the air — a gesture from the world of wrapping and gifts, enlarged to the scale of an interior and stripped of its occasion.

The surface is broken into thousands of triangular facets, so the composition does not reflect, it multiplies: points of light hide in the bends and are multiplied without end.

By day the piece gathers all the light of a space and returns it as a salute of highlights — it works with not one lamp switched on, living only on what is around it. In the evening the sources in the bends add a glow of their own, and the facets begin to fire sharp sparks in every direction.

Where it works

Above a table, in a window display, in an entrance hall, in a boutique. The composition depends on its surroundings: it is placed where there is something to reflect and where directed light will strengthen the facets.

Style

Hollywood glamour and contemporary Art Deco: shine as a subject in its own right. The message is festive — a piece for a space that wants an effect.
