Mirrored star sculpture: Galactic Reflections

An AllSphyr on a curved Icosa framework of copper wire, covered in convex mirrors, Blu-ray discs and glass rhinestones, with music-activated LEDs for the night. Built to order.

Galactic Reflections

How it is made.

The frame is 4-gauge copper wire, bent into a curved Icosa framework and wrapped in HVAC aluminum tape. Over it go 8-inch acrylic convex mirrors, Blu-ray discs, glass mirrors and glass rhinestones, so no part of the surface is left bare.

Individually addressable LEDs run throughout the framework and answer to music, so after dark the piece lights in time with the sound around it.

Where it works best.

Galactic Reflections is best suited to a covered space. In the footage and the photograph here it hangs from a copper tripod, turning at golden hour and suspended over a lawn.

Custom builds.

This piece is not one of the rentals: it is made to order. Custom builds are available in the same materials, and the studio prices each one after a conversation about where it will go and what it should be.

Commissions for hotels and other spaces are described on the hospitality page; smaller mirrored works are in the structures catalog.
