Reflet cartésien mirror • collector

With the Reflet cartésien mirror, Andrée Putman develops a geometric composition that fragments the reflective surface into a network of lines and structures reminiscent of stained-glass architecture. Reflections are cut, layered, and recomposed according to light and the movement of the gaze. The rigor of the design, almost architectural in nature, enters into dialogue with the luminous vibration of the mirror. Each section captures the surrounding space differently, creating a shifting perception in which order and diffraction coexist with subtlety. With Reflet cartésien, Andrée Putman once again reveals her fascination with geometry as a means of illuminating space, transforming the mirror into a living and luminous graphic composition.
