About the Item

Baltic Iris mirror by Tom Palmer Dimensions: D 140 x H 5 cm Mterials: Glass, Resin Also available: other sizes and variations available. The Iris mirrors are hand cast in a high grade Polyurethane industrial resin that can be tinted to almost any colour. This resin is highly resistant to UV and environmental damage. I find that natural tones, blue, green / aqua tones and earth colours tend to work best and refract the light in really interesting ways. A test casts in a black / grey smoke is looking really promising. This cast convex lens is polished and coated in a protective lacquer coating before being layered over a hand silvered mirror disk. Tom Palmer (b 1986) is an Artist whose work ranges from individual pieces for private clients, to bespoke installations for international interior designers and architects. Much of Tom’s work has been informed by his ability to work with an ever-expanding range of materials and skills both ancient and contemporary. He has a particular fascination in the world of Medieval and Renaissance Europe but also the aesthetic and art of later Japanese makers and artists. He takes inspiration from functional objects as well as religious and fine art. A brief overview of some recent pieces gives the best insight into Tom’s astonishing range. As well as working on his own pieces, Tom has developed and created specific elements for many projects on a more architectural scale for both private and industry clients. In recent years he has been called upon to create often deeply textural pieces using everything from timeless ‘noble’ materials such as stone and bronze to newly emerging industrial composites. Tom is included in the prestigious Homo Faber Guide of craftsmanship compiled by the Michelangelo Foundation
