'Sun'

Tarot brooch.

Silver, enamel paint, mirrors, tintype, steel.

​

Acquired by MAD Musée des arts décoratifs, Paris.

​

​Orignally part of the Tarot exhibition, held at La Joaillerie par Mazlo. Based on the Tarot card ‘Sun’ where two children are depicted below the Sun. A young boy meets another in a garden, and then realises it’s actually himself. Often deemed the most positive card in a Tarot deck.

 

Two mirrors on the surface of the card can be fixed forward to reflect the boys face, or folded flat to reflect the viewer.
