Chen Chen and Kai Williams have skillfully combined contrasting elements and materials to create a truly captivating collection of mirrors. Known as the Transition Mirrors, their name is inspired by the classification of silver as a "transition metal." These mirrors are meticulously crafted through a unique process, where a silver nitrate solution is carefully poured onto clear glass, creating a chemical bond with its surface. The defining feature of these mirrors lies at the contoured edge of the silver, where a deliberate point of fragility exists. This intentional design choice results in a moment of delicate beauty, adding an extraordinary touch to the overall construction.
