This artist's mirror captures and reflects both light and movement, embodying Jesús Rafael Soto's iconic moiré pattern. As the viewer engages with the piece, their interactions generate dynamic optical illusions, which not only animate the work but also complete the experience by merging art with perception. The viewer becomes an essential participant in the art, with their movements activating the visual effects, thus blurring the lines between static art and motion.

Since relocating to Paris in the 1950s, Soto became immersed in the European avant-garde art scene, where he connected with prominent figures such as Alexander Calder, Victor Vasarely, Jean Tinguely, and Marcel Duchamp. These interactions were transformative, helping to shape his innovative approach to kinetic and optical art. His explorations of perception and movement resonated with the broader Op Art and Kinetic Art movements of the time, yet his unique emphasis on audience participation set him apart.
