Reflexion | Chase Spivey

Reflexion is a large-scale interactive installation of over 2,500 slightly convex 2.5 inch circular mirrors mounted across the walls of the Library Gallery at MAINSITE Contemporary Art. Each mirror can pivot slightly, allowing the viewer's reflection and the surrounding environment to shift in response to interaction. The work challenges traditional gallery viewing by making the viewer's presence an essential and evolving part of the piece. Drawing from geometric abstraction, kinetic art, and participatory installation traditions, Reflexion turns the gallery into a perceptual instrument exploring themes of perception, identity, surveillance, and transformation.
