Full Moon Stardust

Full Moon Stardust is a circular artwork that immediately captures attention through its interplay of texture, reflection, and deliberate imperfection. Encased in a slender brass frame with a delicate gold chain for hanging—which is removable—the piece can be displayed with or without the chain using the provided hardware. The piece centers on a shattered mirror whose radial fractures create a dynamic network of sharp, reflective angles. This cracked surface evokes a sense of vulnerability while also inviting the eye to explore the fragmented reflections that shimmer and shift with changing light.

At the heart of the composition lies an irregular patch of muted gold tones, surrounded by a bold, horizontal black streak slicing across the circle. This contrast between the natural, organic center and the sharp, jagged edges of the mirror fragments creates a compelling tension, holding the viewer’s focus between softness and strength. The use of repurposed materials, including tissue paper and repurposed artwork layered over the broken glass, adds subtle depth and an understated complexity, transforming fragments into a unified whole.

The intentional fractures speak to themes of resilience, transformation, and the beauty found within brokenness. By reframing shattered elements as an integral part of the work’s identity, the piece embraces imperfection as a source of visual and emotional richness. Full Moon Stardust invites reflection—both literal and metaphorical—offering a striking, contemplative experience where fractured surfaces coexist with quiet, grounded forms.
