Urs Fischer

Salt/Sandra

2010

Urs Fischer's *Salt/Sandra* is a monumental, multi-part work in which silkscreened imagery is applied directly onto mirror-polished stainless steel sheets, creating a dizzying interplay between printed surface and reflective depth. The work's industrial construction—foam, adhesive, steel beams, and aluminum sections—foregrounds its own materiality while simultaneously dissolving it through the near-hallucinatory effect of the mirrored ground. Fragmented across four parts, the piece challenges the boundaries between image, object, and the viewer's own shifting reflection.

Medium
