Mirror Zinc Sculpture in a Garden

Project overview

This mirror sculpture is a single zinc disc that turns a garden into a mirror. The sculpture came to our production facility, we arc wire sprayed it in zinc and polished it until it gave back the trees, the sky and anyone walking past. Then it was set in the garden of this private home. It does not hide the garden, it doubles it.
