Fine Design - Mirrored art.

"Next week I've a collection of wall mirrors going into Habitat. They are collaborations with four young Irish photographic, graphic and graffiti artists - Aidan Kelly, Morgan, Pi, and Will St Leger. I used images created by the artists and transferred them, through a tricky printing process, on to slender mirrored boxes that can be hung from a wall.

They are lit from within to create a moody effect when light shines through the image. They're fun and light-hearted but beautiful, too, I hope.

I was inspired to do this series by street art I saw in Paris, and because I wanted to collaborate with others and try to combine my work with theirs to come up with something special."
