Daniel Rozin “Trash Mirror”, 2001.
From artist’s website:
Monday February 6, 2012 | Comments500 pieces of variously colored trash collected from the streets of New York and artist’s pockets, motors, control electronics, concealed video camera, computer…This piece suggests that we are reflected in what we discard.
The mechanical mirrors are made of various materials but share the same behavior and interaction; any person standing in front of one of these pieces is instantly reflected on its surface. The mechanical mirrors all have video cameras, motors and computers on board and produce a soothing sound as the viewer interacts with them.
