Description from the seller

Tired of running away from pollution? And what if the plastic that infest our oceans finally takes center stage in our attention? It’s by making this bet that we chose to place recycled plastic at the center of the mirror. Thus, Man is no longer at the center of attention and is forced to shift aside to see his reflection.

As indicated, the mirror is pierced in its center. On the front face, a circle of 150 mm in diameter, made from recycled plastic, runs through the mirror to better support it. This circle is sculpted in the shape of a wave to evoke the origin of this material. At the back, another plate of recycled plastic is fixed and allows wall mounting without damaging the mirror. This mount is finally secured by two Z-shaped brackets, facilitating installation.

The design studio "pirouette." conceptualized, imagined and drew this object, then ensured the assembly and the sculpture of the plastic. The recycled plastic was molded by "La Plastiquerie", from plastic recovered from the ocean. The cutting of the plastic and that of the mirror were carried out by two companies in the south of France. The "Galerie des Curiosités" is the originator of this collaboration.
