Perlucio Mirror

Perlucio Mirror

£0.00

Hand drawn glass, water gilded in pure silver and framed in oxidised lead. The inherent delicacy of these materials allow small disparities to be subtly transferred during individual stages of the making process, resulting in unique pieces that will slowly evolve their patina over many years.

It’s thought mans first conscious use of the mirror image utilised shallow vessels of water, Perlucio evokes this lost quality. Employing centuries old methods of working traditional materials to provide a visual experience, challenging our perception of our environment.
From a distance reflections appear distorted and mysteriously out of focus, refracted light creates the shimmer you find looking at rippled water. While persons moving through the frame do so with a serene fluidity and reality takes on an ethereal peculiarity. As you come closer your reflection becomes more regular.

Hand drawn glass, silver leaf, ebonised birch, oxidised lead frame. Finish; natural wax.
