Tacchini TACT & TRACE Resin mirror

The kaleidoscope creates blurs of colours and ever-evolving reflections, much like the memories that, over time, fade and blend with different perceptions.‎ This novel parallelism is the basis of Tact & Trace mirrors and Refract vases, the collection of resin objects marking the first collaboration between Tacchini and the studio Objects of Common Interest.‎ To evoke this effect, both the material and the shapes become essential: the coloured and semi-transparent resin creates dynamic plays of shades and shadows, while the prismatic shapes lend a timeless, gentle note to the mirrors and vases.‎ Thus, each creation becomes a tactile reflection on the beauty of memory, fragile and fleeting like the colours and figures that transform following the movements of a kaleidoscope.‎ The Tact & Trace mirrors emerge from the memory of Eleni Petaloti — co-founder, along with Leonidas Trampoukis, of the studio — who, recalling a crystal piece once owned by her grandparents, began experimenting with prismatic shapes.‎ The essence of crystal is thus reinterpreted into contemporary mirrors that reflect the light, shape, and emotions that have always moved her.‎ Building upon this approach with different scales and perspectives, the Refract vases are also born.‎ These coloured vases are made with particular attention to sustainability by reusing the resin from the mirror production process.‎ Further info from manufacturer on TACT & TRACE Tacchini
