Umberto Mariani's Mirrors contains nine unique pieces signed and dated by the artist. Mariani often incorporates mirrors into his mixed media works, utilizing them to reflect and distort the viewer's perception of reality. Often fragmented, distorted, or broken, Mariani's mirrors reflect multiple images that challenge the viewer's understanding of identity, perception, and memory. This fragmentation creates a sense of ambiguity and uncertainty, inviting the viewer to question their own understanding of themselves and the world around them.
