About the Item
Past, present and future? Past is past, present is being present, and the future, well, who knows what lies ahead for each of us? Does one's mindset and ones's actions - both good and bad - influence the future? What's the role of epigenetic modifications to gene expression? Are we destined to repeat the mistakes of the past or can we make this a better world not only for ourselves but for our children's children and beyond?
Seeing yourself in the mirror when viewing the work, viewers are invited to join the artist duo on their quest. It's a journey to improve one's lot in life through connection. The universe, humanity, and one's inner self are all targets to finding flow. Along the way on this beautiful path known as life, achieving one's potential and in turn assisting others to reach their potential.
Lighting impacts this artwork with photons meeting the hand cut layered aluminum at different angles of incidence. Viewers' perception of the work changes as one navigates 180 degrees around the work. Spot lighting as well as colored lighting on the artwork create visual delights for one's eyes and enhance and add variety to the work, while not necessarily being a part. The collector gets to decide on type of lighting to meet their creativity and desires.
Metalamirror™ work channels the artist duo's message through their revolutionary medium comprised of a layer of handmade Metalagram® and a second aligned layer of hand-made mirror. The Metalagram® layer under the silver mirror embraces sculptural creation at the intersection of old-world skills and 21st century technology.
The artist duo's work, made from their original artist processes, demonstrates philosopher Marshall McLuhan's theorem, "The medium is the message'". This multilayered artist process was developed during covid and builds on and incorporates the duo's original Metalagram® artwork promoting interconnectedness. This work was made in the artists' studio, located in the former Moross House Museum, the oldest brick dwelling in Detroit, MI, circa 1840.

- Mirror, Meta EmpathBy Linda K Schinkel and Theodore M SchinkelLocated in Detroit, MIThis work symbolizes the intuitive journey of an empath as she channels her inner knowledge. The work reminds viewers that they know more than they realize in fields of plenty in consciousness beyond the knowable realm. One is reminded to trust one's instinct, to take that leap of faith knowing that there is more there than meets one's eyes. In the reflection the viewer sees themselves and their surroundings as part of the Empath, allowing for a stronger connection with themselves and the world. Metalamirror™ works, build upon the duo's original artist process, Metalagram®, channeling their messages through a revolutionary medium comprised of one layer of handmade Metalagram® + one aligned layer of hand-made silver mirror. The Metalagram® layer, made with the artist duo's original artist process, exists as a separate layer under the aligned silver mirror. The artist duo creates this sculptural work at the intersection of old-world skills and 21st century technology.

Excerpt from the PACE Gallery Press materials: It is clear that Moix, a true Catalonian, has a rightful claim to the lineage that spawned the extraordinary draughtmanship of his Spanish predecessors- Goya and Picasso. “Part of the pleasure of this project on Quixote by Santi Moix is that it boldly closes the gap between writing and art, between the markmaking of the pen, the stylo, the etching tool, between the fiction of two absolutely distinct means of expression, and proposes instead a true imaginative domain in which unity is everything” – Adrian Dannati, 2008 Measurements: Frame: 22 x 27 x 1.5 inches Print: 19.5 x 25 inches Exhibition History: "Santi Moix: Don Quixote" at PACE prints from September 11 to October 4, 2008.
