Una collezione di specchi firmata SICIS Il prodigio del doppio Nasce una collezione di specchi firmati SICIS; preziosi oggetti del desiderio per un quotidiano ordinario che vuole essere straordinario. Lo specchio è illusione, un dilatatore di spazi, di percezioni, è riflesso apparente di realtà. Attorno allo specchio la letteratura, l’arte e la poesia - che si fanno emozione -, hanno costruito un mondo immaginario e fantastico, soglia irresistibile verso l’inconscio. È ciò che sta oltre la lucente e abbagliante - quanto liquida - superficie argentea nella quale si palesa il nostro volto. Attraverso lo specchio ci s’interroga sulla nostra identità, ci si prepara a indossare la maschera che celerà il nostro ‘sentire’ per le strade e negli incontri. E dalla stessa materia evanescente e impalpabile, il vetro, con i suoi colori, bagliori e trasparenze, nasce l’omaggio di SICIS al ‘prodigio del doppio’. Le tessere di mosaico, come frammenti di sogno, si compongono in cromie e decori preziosi, segnando il confine tra il quì e l’oltre. SICIS si spinge, tuttavia, anche verso nuove e inedite possibilità espressive. Ecco che disegna ‘soglie’ - o se preferite, cornici - in nobile cuoio, in carta istoriata, in moderno plexiglass... Così lo specchio si veste di bellezza. Attrae e rapisce. Un collezione che si compone di nomi arcani: Rajar, Linil, Macam, Zebez... Sonorità che sembrano sortilegi di fiaba. Da destra a sinistra, da sinistra a destra, una lettura che svela la magia del riflesso. 2 2 A collection of mirrors designed by SICIS The wonder of doubles SICIS has designed a new collection of mirrors, precious objects of desire for an ordinary everyday life that wants to be extraordinary. A mirror is illusion, an expander of spaces and perceptions, the apparent reflection of reality. Literature, art and poetry – which become emotion – have constructed an imaginary and fantastical world around mirrors, the enticing threshold of the unconscious. It is that which is beyond the bright and dazzling – as well as liquid – silvery surface in which our visage is revealed. Through the mirror we ask questions about our identity, and prepare to put on the mask that will conceal our ‘feeling’ on the street and in our encounters with others. With the same evanescent and impalpable material, glass, with all its colors, glints, and transparencies, SICIS makes homage to the ‘wonder of doubles’. The mosaic tiles, like fragments of dreams, are composed in exquisite color combinations and decorations, marking the boundary between here and the beyond. But SICIS also moves toward new and unusual expressive possibilities, designing ‘thresholds’ – or if you prefer, frames – in noble leather, in decorative paper, in modern plexiglass, in sumptuous prized wood...Thus the mirror is adorned in beauty. It allures and captivates. A collection composed of arcane names: Rajar, Linil, Macam, Zebez... with sounds that evoke fairy-tale sorceries. From right to left, from left to right, a reading that reveals the magic of reflections. 3 3 Witiw3 Alila Index Page 34 Page 68 Yamay Tenet Page 36 Page 70 Rajar Kalak Beneb Page 06 Page 40 Page 76 Nitin Tarat Tuvut Page 10 Page 42 Page 78 Witiw5 Sexes Xanax2 Page 14 Page 46 Page 84 Zebez Reder Palap Page 16 Page 52 Page 86 Cerec Dagad Edide Page 20 Page 58 Page 88 Ricir Witiw1 Erdre Page 22 Page 60 Page 92 Posop Verev Neden Page 28 Page 62 Page 94 Coroc Modom Pirip Page 98 Page 126 Page 154 Index Gilig Saras Arera Page 100 Page 130 Page 158 Xanax1 Lamal Minim Page 104 Page 134 Page 160 Dalad Linil Romor Page 106 Page 136 Page 164 Macam1 Faraf Divid Page 108 Page 140 Page 168 Macam2 Rasar Noron Page 112 Page 142 Page 170 Bilib Witiw2 Page 118 Page 146 Ledel Spips Tecnical data Page 120 Page 148 Page 174 Witiw4 Losol Additional materials Page 124 Page 152 Page 186 Rajar The mirror on my wall Casts an image dark and small But I’m not sure at all it’s my reflection (FLOWERS NEVER BEND WITH THE RAINFALL, BY SIMON & GARFUNKEL) Dimensions 80x96 cm · 31 1/2"x47 3/4" 6 Main components 6 Plexiglass, Various Glass Mosaic Rajar 7 7 8 8 Rajar 9 9 Nitin On the floor of tokyo Or down in london town to go, go With the record selection With the mirror reflection I’m dancing with myself (DANCING WITH MYSELF, BY BILLY IDOL) Dimensions 59x59 cm · 23 1/4"x23 1/4" Main components 10 Plexiglass, Various Glass Mosaic and 10 24 Kt Gold Nitin 11 11 Nitin 12 12 13 13 5 Witiw Because when I look in the mirror I say You’ll never know if you don’t know by now (WHEN I LOOK IN THE MIRROR, BY JENNIFER BROWN) Dimensions 60x220 · 23 5/8"x86 5/8" 14 Main components 14 Wood, Various Marble Mosaic 15 15 Witiw5 Zebez Mirrors on the ceiling, the pink champagne on ice And she said ‘we are all just prisoners here, of our own device’...
