MIRAGE

MIRAGE

Mirage is a combination of reflective and sand-blasted glass and focuses on the interaction of light. Sabine Marcelis was asked by the Collectional Gallery in Dubai to create the piece. The wall sections create a soft diffusion of artificial light and a strong colour reflection in the sun. As such, Mirage captures the energy of nature and the vibrancy of city life; Marcelis based her design on the duality between the warm sun on the desert sand during the day and the sparkling lights of the city at night. The works use the unique characteristics of glass to create layered objects that act both as mirror and light source.
