Powell Mirror By Insidherland

Powell Mirror by InsidherLandDimensions: D 4 x W 85 x H 90 cm.Materials: Bronze mirror, polished brass and estremoz marble.Weight: 27 kg.Diné Bikeyah, or Navajoland, is located in the United States of America within the boundary of four sacred mountains: Mt. Blanca to the east, Mt. Taylor to the south, San Francisco Peak to the west, and Mt. Hesperus to the north, near Durango, Colorado. The Navajo natives, the Diné, believe that these mountains were created by the Holy People, who taught them how to live in harmony with Mother Earth, Father Sky, and all other elements of nature such as men, animals, and plants.In this remarkable expanse encompassing dozens of national monuments across Utah, Arizona, and New Mexico lies the awe-inspiring Reflection Canyon, a remote and magnificent cliff formation. The sandstone canyon features undulating walls in brownish-red and white tones, creating a striking contrast with the blue waters of Lake Powell.The Powell mirror smoothly re imagines the majestic beauty of these cliffs, capturing their twists and turns along the Colorado River. Crafted from wavy layers of noble materials such as marble, brass,and bronze mirror, echoing the sandy hues of the sandstone formation, Powell's undulating forms authentically recreate the untamed wilderness of this hidden treasure, taking us on a long journey through the serpentine cliffs.The Powell mirror now joins the Arizona mirror and the Navajo Canyon cabinet, other pieces in the Beyond Memory Collection, collectively reflecting Joana Santos Barbosa's genuine fascination with the breathtaking landscapes found in the remarkable Lands of the Navajo Nation.
