Squire & Partners has created artworks for Article 25′s 10x10 Drawing the City charity auction every year since its inception. Partner Tim Gledstone and our Modelshop and CGI have designed and created Reflection 23 for the 2023 art auction in answer to the brief's 'Reflection' theme.
Reflection 23 knows no scale, it lives and breathes in a static captured sculptural form, but also as an NFT.
Its primal spherical form is generated from parametric hexagonal cells found throughout the DNA of nature but also at the heart of the new James Webb Telescope – its gold-plated mirrors capturing the universe over 13 billion lights years away.
Reflection 23’s spherical hexagonal form has adapted into part gold reflector. These reflectors have stimulated the surrounding hexagonal cells. Gravitational pull anchors three of the cells to terra firma. Reflection 23 is just one state of the changing reflector.
3D printed from a plant-based resin, the sculpture is lacquered in 80% brass filings with gold leaf, and mounted on a base of stained sapele in a glass bell jar.
