This motherboard is a crystal mirror with laser etchings made inside the glass slab rather than on the mirror’s surface, rendering them untouchable. The etchings are made using a technological laser that disintegrated the “singular glass crystals within the sheet which forms the mirror,” the designer explains.
The etchings are circuits “an intersection of lines borrowed from the world of electronics, a metaphor for connections, global systems, [and] electronic systems for common use which few of us understand the real technical sense.” The circuits effectively lose their function, “transformed into organic traces [and] imprisoned… “reflected and frozen inside the mirror.”
Motherboard is a limited edition piece produced for Edizioni Galleria Colombari in three versions: rectangular, square or circular.
