Mirasol 2009

Peter Alexander's 2009 sculpture "Mirasol" is a captivating example of minimalist art. The work features a transparent, rectangular block of resin that mimics the appearance of a still body of water. Its translucent quality and subtle rippling effect invite viewers to contemplate the nature of perception and the illusion of depth, creating a sense of both stillness and movement. The work's simple form and elegant execution exemplifies the artist's signature style, which often explores the relationship between materials and light.
