Keep a low profile
The engraved mirror created by the artist for the Pillars of Democracy exhibition at Cărturești Carusel takes on a new meaning when placed in the natural setting of the park. In this context, the object becomes a point of self-reflection, inviting passersby to a quiet moment of introspection, far from the controlled environment of the gallery.
