Hodges first began working with mirrors in 1996 when he shattered a piece of reflective glass to create a cracked surface. Here, individual mirrored tiles are affixed to the support creating a tessellated surface—akin to the shape of the Pompeian fragment in this room—that reflects light in myriad ways. Hodges’s corner placement causes variations in color as the two separate shades meet at the center. —HJ
