21st Century Resin Black Magic Mirror
Estimated Production Time7-8 weeks
About
The Black Magic collection is inspired by the concept of revealing that which has been hidden from sight, but remains ever-present. Works in this series are cast in layers of resin and then carved, shaped and sanded to reveal hidden colors, shapes and patterns.
The one of a kind Black Magic Mirror is our latest piece in this series.
The concept for the Black Magic Mirror was born out of the process we created for the Black Magic Vessels. We removed large amounts of material from the vessels to reveal hidden patterns and create each piece's unique shape. Rather than discard the excess resin, we saved it and experiment with ways to re-purpose it.
Experimentation and pushing the boundaries of materials is a focal point of our studio.
By seamlessly recasting our unused fragments into larger resin blocks, we create a new material with intricate and unimagined patterns that we are then able to cut, shape and assemble into new objects without the limitations of a predetermined form.
With this new process, we are able to both infinitely reuse our material as well as explore forms previously unattainable within the confines of a mold.
We chose this piece, the Black Magic Mirror, as our first object in this new process as it embodies the concept of infinite reflection within our resin material.

About The Maker
Elyse Graham
View ProfileFounded in 2014 and based in Los Angeles, the Elyse Graham studio is a place where unusual materials and experimental processes are implemented to create a melding of art and object. We design by making--with a sense of curiosity, wonder and joy.
We design and produce every piece by hand in our Los Angeles studio. The work is driven by the processes Graham develops for the very specific materials she uses, most notably plaster and resin. Our one of a kind Drip Vases are created with a process Graham designed to cast plaster inside of a flexible latex balloon mold. The interiors of the vessels are then sealed with layers of poured resin, making them functional pieces. Graham has also created a technique for dying the plaster exterior of the vases. Each piece is hand dip-dyed, layer by layer, and then sealed with a protective coating.
This series of vessels, dyed in muted earth tones, is inspired by glacial erosion, layered metamorphic rock, and the magnificent coastal landscapes of the artist's native California.
Our new Black Magic Collection of resin vessels and furniture is inspired by the concept of revealing that which has been hidden from sight, but remains ever-present.
Work from the Elyse Graham studio has recently been published in T Magazine, Veranda, Harper's Bazaar, House Beautiful, and Interior Design, among others.
