Relocated, reordered and recycled mirrors collected from glass factories of Bergen and Murano. The mirrors lean on the walls according to their length from the biggest to the smallest ones, even under the stairs of the room. They compose multitudes of forms with thousands of pieces of mirror leftovers on the window benches and on the floor of the gallery. The fragments of mirror multiply every detail of the space together with the visitors moving within it. The visitors take a glimpse at the reality beyond their senses trough the various endless reflections of light and reality. While entering the light installation the visitors mayreflect on their existence here and now.
