Artist Statement
Mercury Landscape is a large wall-mounted relief that turns reflection into a living river. Hand-formed, mirror-polished stainless steel breaks light into currents, eddies and ripples; the boutique’s architecture, people and product become the image that flows across the surface. At the lower edge a single “drop” gathers, as if the metal itself were liquid and about to fall—an accent that anchors the composition and hints at tides and rainfall. Installed within Peter Marino’s luminous interior for Dior, the work behaves like a luminous skin: calm from a distance, intensely animated up close. It does not depict a landscape; it performs one—mapping the movement of visitors and the changing day into a shifting cartography of chrome and sky.
1/1 Modern Exhibition
Place free-standing with at least 1 m of clearance so the rim reads as a full rosette. Use even, high-CRI lighting at 3000–4000 K; soft overhead illumination emphasizes the petal geometry without harsh hotspots. Keep surrounding tones neutral to let reflections do the coloring. Clean with microfiber and a pH-neutral solution only.
