Introducing 'Paper Moon' This
innovative kaleidoscope has the duality that has become a
trademark in my work. The magic of this new piece starts
with the base. There you see a 3 dimensional image that
defies the space in which it resides. Using two mirrors,
and Japanese papers, I have created an image that is
reminiscent of a scientific compass. The #D central image
hovers presicely above a beautiful mandala made from
exquisite handmade papers. The base has two static mandalas
in it, one at the top and one at the bottom. 13"h x 4"w x
10"d. $795
The exterior of the kaleidoscope is made from hand painted
textured glass. The kaleidoscope that sits on top of the
base is a 3 mirror tapered system giving a perfect sphere,
hence the name 'Paper Moon'
This is the interior view of Paper Moon. The image is
generated by tapering three mirrors, and configuring them
into a 30,60.90 degree triangle. The colour you see is from
the liquid filled cell that is situated at the end of the
kaleidoscope.
