Mirror Abstract Paintings

This mixed media piece is made with dichroic film on mirror and is framed in a modern white frame. The application film alters the mirror so that it alters the visible colors depending on the angle at which the viewer interacts with it. Certain areas are left without the film to create the sensibility of a painting, while the changing colors impact the reflection of the space. "I seek to find balance between the creative process and the present moment using color as a direct and indirect language," the artist, Alina B, says. "Color series paintings explore the dynamics between light, pigment, and the viewer. To achieve this, I work with mirrors as my canvas and a medium that allows for drastic shifts, effected by natural exposures, like light, the angle of a space, and the viewer themselves. Combining the reflective areas of a mirror with color...

This contemporary piece is made with dichroic film on mirror and is framed in a modern white frame. The artist has applied the film but left small areas without, giving a painterly aesthetic to this mixed-media composition. The area is nearly all covered, however, resulting in the reflection of the mirror to change colors depending on the angle at which the viewer interacts with it. Ideal in a colorful space or to add color in a neutral location, it invites interaction and provides an unexpected, playful interpretation of a space. It is ready to hang.

This contemporary piece is made with dichroic film on mirror and is framed in a modern white frame. The application of the film creates a changing colorful aesthetic so that the viewer sees different colors as they change the angle at which they view it. Areas around the periphery that look metallic give the mixed-media piece an almost painterly aesthetic. This abstracted mirror invites interaction and adds a playful alternate view to any space. It can hang vertically or horizontally, and is ready to hang.

Her love for glass design began at Vilnius Academy of Fine Arts, where she learned techniques including: blown glass, fusing, etching, casting, and stained glass; under the instruction of Valmantas Gutauskas, apprentice of the acclaimed Dale Chihuly. She also studied art history at the Akademie der Bildenden Kunste Munchen, where she found inspiration in Franz Klein, Egon Schiele, and Gustav Klimt. Subsequent years have seen more travel for Alina, including moving to Connecticut in 2010. And although she will always value her academic education, she enjoys artistic experimentation and investigation outside the classroom; paying tribute to traditional technique whilst embracing ‘creating in the now’ and ‘letting go’. Today, Alina’s preferred glass medium is a mirror. She manipulates the silver layer with acids and paint. Surprising passages of color and pattern, entwined with preserved reflective areas, create a charged, fluid composition that responds to light and environment. ARTIST STATEMENT There are two things that fascinate me when working with mirrors: that my “canvas” is a challenging surface to work with – glass is fragile, silver is temperamental. And the introduction of a finished piece into an environment. Each new space or angle engages the viewer; reflections of light or rooms become a part of the piece. In a way, these mirror paintings...
