The surface of a polished obsidian. An artifact interconnecting cultures, ages and dimensions as an interpretive key. The abundance of a metaphor applied to a selection of works by authors associated with the Preparing for Darkness project. Mirroring on the surface and in the depth. The darkness of the grotto as a condition or starting point for an enlightened reflection. All this displayed by „Mirror Noir.“ Lukas Koval
