At Salon 94 Design on Manhattan's Upper East Side, Sabine Marcelis Debuts Her Phase Mirrors

Dutch designer Sabine Marcelis has debuted her Phase mirrors at Salon 94 Design in Manhattan, shown as a solo presentation at the gallery. The series comes in two forms: a circular mirror, Phase, and a tall, narrow one, Phase Vertical.

The works combine matte and polished cast resin, LED lighting and a coloured, foggy mirror. The resin is graded in ombré tones that tint the light passing through and around it, so each piece reads differently as daylight shifts through the day. They sit somewhere between a wall mirror, a light fixture and a sculpture.

Marcelis is known for her handling of translucent resin, glass, colour and light, and Phase continues that line of thinking: the material itself is the subject as much as the reflection. Photography of the presentation is by Alexis Salas and Elisabeth Bernstein.

Salon 94 Design is on Fifth Avenue on the Upper East Side, a short walk from the Metropolitan Museum of Art, which makes it easy to pair with a museum visit. Pricing is available by inquiry only. Going in daylight hours is the best way to see how the colour changes.
