Since the dawn of humanity, we have been fascinated by surfaces that allow the observation of our own reflection. NARCISSUS is a wall sconce that embellishing the decorative elements of the mirror, and scrutinises the reality of the images projected back at us. Using the PROMETHEUS series as a language and material stepping stone, Boots has honed raw natural quartz crystals and brass to create a mirror fit for Narcissus himself. Minerals used in the work are sourced from Brazil and Mexico.
