About the Item

This work mirrors back to viewers connecting with what is important and what is needed. Reflected in the broken shards of mirror, viewers become an integral part of the work. Autobiographical at times and deeply emotive, viewers are encouraged to reach their potential, to accomplish their dreams and goals. The work, interactive and alive, was created using the artists' made by hand one of a kind original artist process, known as Metalamirror™. Developed at the intersection of art + science, the artists use old world techniques + 21st century technology to create a sculptural layer + an aligned hand made silver mirror layer. A dimensional 3D (despite being layered 2D) interactive experience is realized. The work appears differently from 180 degrees and at varying angles of incidence. Lighting and changing environment impacts the work with photons dancing across the hand made layered work. This work demonstrates philosopher Marshall McLuhan's theorem, "The medium is the message" and was made in the artists' studio, located in the former Moross House Museum, the oldest brick dwelling in Detroit, MI, circa 1840.

  • Mirror, Meta Empath
    By Linda K Schinkel and Theodore M Schinkel
    Located in Detroit, MI
    This 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. 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...

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. Published by Pace Prints, in collaboration with the Institut Ramon LLull Provenance: PACE Editions, New York, NY This work is elegantly floated and framed in a hand made museum quality wood frame, finished with genuine gold leaf, under UV plexiglass.
