Moiré effect generated by a mesh on a mirror
Concave mirror, plastic mesh. 8x8x10cm. July 2024
A study of the moiré patterns that are generated when a mesh is placed above a mirror.
The mesh is rolled into a cone shape which creates moiré patterns where the mesh overlaps itself.
A concave mirror at the base of the mesh creates an enlarged and distorted image of the mesh, further complicating the patterns that the mesh generates.
The mirror in this study is a convex mirror taken from a bicycle rear view mirror with the mirror inverted to expose the concave rear of the mirror. The mesh is the plastic mesh from a supermarket pack of easy peel oranges.
