BURNING Mirror is part of Gábor Góbi’s Melting Collection, a body of work exploring transformation, material memory, and the shifting relationship between function and sculpture. Created from a reclaimed wooden window frame, hand-carved charred wood, and white marble, the mirror appears to dissolve into an organic landscape where architectural elements merge with natural forms. The carved wooden structure grows beyond the original frame, while flowing marble surfaces emerge through openings as if the material itself were melting and reforming. By combining reclaimed materials with labor-intensive carving, the work challenges conventional perceptions of furniture and decorative objects. Once a functional window, the object is transformed into a sculptural mirror that preserves traces of its previous life while acquiring a new identity.⁠
