I came by the website www.designboom.com and stumbled across these geometrically stained designs. Artists David Derksen and Lex Pott have created 'transience' which is a series of these geometric mirrors created with the combination of oxidisation and its ability to create both texture and colour on reflective surfaces.
Oxidisation happens over a long period of time and is a result of silver layers reacting with water and oxygen. Derksen and Pott have experimented with sulphur that is left on the mirrors for various amounts of time, the longer the chemical is left, the deeper the colour.
