Hubert Mirror in Casted Bronze and Marmo di Rima

About the Item

Ruins by Roberto Sironi is a series of works that re-signify architectural fragments belonging to different historical periods and great archaeological sites, modelling the forms according to new aesthetic representations. The project relates constructive elements of the classical era, such as bases of columns, capitals, sections of an amphitheatre, with rudiments of the industrial era, such as the double-T beams and the reticular structural elements. Roberto Sironi elaborates on the concept of ruins according to a new perspective. Conceived as contemporary ruins, imaginary simulacra and/or programmed artifices – the materials and techniques of execution do not correspond to the original. The work shows how different fragments of architectural remains can be overlaid and re-signified, resetting the temporal distances and suspending the notion time. The composition of the colors of the Marmo di Rima in the Hubert Mirror, takes inspiration from the romantic painters of the eighteenth century, namely Robert Hubert (1733-1808), also known as “Robert des Ruines” for his reference of Roman ruins descending into idealised environments. Casted bronze and Marmo di Rima.

  • Bronze large mirror , hand made and cast
    By Rinat Design
    Located in London, GB
    Bronze large mirror is hand crafted based on sculptural tree bark fragments that were hand picked by the designer around UK grounds for their unique sculptural features and natural texture. Each delicate bark piece was carefully moulded, bronze cast in the lost wax process, assembled and made into a beautiful mirror. A functional artwork that acts also as a wall art. The mirror is part of 'Bark' collection where sculptural tree bark fragments, kept intact in their natural form and texture, are individually moulded in silicone rubber and cast in bronze. The bronze fragments are then meticulously soldered to one another, piece by piece, following the designer's layout and composition. The cast pieces are then welded to a bronze frame rim and made into a stunning mirror. The mirror in the picture is finished in a striking gold patina and the overall size is 125cm x 65cm. Tree bark mirror...
