After only a few hours of restless sleep, he rushed to his workshop where there was no shortage of equipment to bring his vision to life. After finally being able to articulate and draw out his crazy idea to his team, they then spent the entire day preparing the basic components of the glass itself, preparing it for the most critical part of the process that would follow.

The very next morning, the glass was ready to be bent. By then, Arturo was certain of all the mixed temperatures, particle alterations, shape modifiers, and other fundamental variables needed for the glass to survive the process.

Days went by full of delicate bending and forming the piece, with different heating and cooling processes essential to manipulate the glass particles. A week later, Arturo was certain that the bending process had been successful and that the piece was as solid as he had pictured it when the idea first popped into his head.

With an emotional and nostalgic heart, after such a seemingly endless process, Arturo signed the corner of his very first mirror art piece. All there was left for him to do was to bring the piece to life by baptizing it with the perfect name.

Aesthetically, his pieces play with the reflections provoked by its molded surfaces: glass and mirror which visually project dynamism and fluidity, thus implying whimsical and changing distortions of the images reflected on each one. These pieces end up creating themselves thanks to the artistic and technical work, adding to the natural patina that each one acquires in the initial process as well as throughout time.

Arturo sat in solitude, absent of any distractions, and just stared into his art piece. Time went by until he snapped out of and realized he had been pondering over the many aspects of his life up until this moment, instead of thinking about a name for his new collection. His mind had completely entered into a meditative stare while staring into all the delicate curves and reflections of his art piece, similar to when one stares into a fire.
