A mirror that reveals its special, unexpected, touch wherever it is
used, the enigmatic wordplay screen-printed on the glass merging
with whatever is being reflected. Created by Man Ray, the American
painter, photographer and film-maker. One of the more radical and
multi-talented exponents of both Dada and Surrealism, he was
particularly renowned for his love of experimentation, which included
his achieving some extremely innovative results using air-brushes,
photographic film, and common objects. This oval mirror, is backed
with stiff polyurethane, and derives from a larger piece created by the
artist, adapting a Surrealist artwork into an object for everyday use.

serigraphed as it was design by
Man Ray.
