Create a small mirror installation using the materials provided. These are cardboard, tape and mirror foil. You should focus on two questions.
- What do you want to express with the installation? What effect should it have? For example, should it confuse the viewer or criticise the way we deal with mirrors and our own reflection?
- Which optical effects that you have learned about do you want to use in the installation?
You will present your installation to the class and answer these two questions. Ideally, you can demonstrate the optical effects with a small torch on the installation. Collect all your sketches, ideas and notes on the questions in the portfolio.
