Mirror
Mounted on the wall of a staircase, just before rounding a sharp corner, a circular ‘Mirror’ is angled at eye-level, as if to reflect and warn of oncoming traffic coming the other way.
However, this mirror doesn’t reflect it’s own immediate surroundings, or an image of ourselves, instead it reflects back the texture of cobbles from outside in the street - albeit softened and distorted by printing in neon pink. To what extent does the built environment stay with us, define us - give us a sense of ourselves as ‘Being here’?
