My inspiration for this project came from the gilded wood panel room at the Getty Center, made by Jacques Gaultier in the 20th century. The room is beautifully ornate, but I was more interested in the number of mirrors and the infinite reflections they created. I also wondered what the room would be like without the artificial lighting that we see in The Getty Center, but instead lit solely by the chandelier. I created a simple animation, which focuses on the light of the chandelier and how it would react with the mirrors.
