My inspirations are just as fleeting as the elusive collection of water drops. A shadow on the wall, spilled coffee or a withered leaf – these are the things that we usually don’t notice, but thanks to which my new projects are created.
The materials that I use are glass mirrors, plywood, copper and fabrics. The process of creating a mirror involves several stages. The first part is drawing many sketches and picking the best ones. When the design is ready, its components are transferred to paper to form the templates, and these in turn – to glass and plywood. Then they are cut, sanded, painted, the edges of the mirror are being finished with copper tape, and the back with fabric. Pendants are also attached. Everything is done by hand. The whole process of making a mirror is quite laborious and time-consuming – I have to be very careful and take my time. One false move and the mirror breaks! The process of paint drying takes about 24 hours, the same goes for the glue, so it takes a few days to create one piece.
