The Everson Museum in Syracuse has a new site specific installation in their stairwell. Derek Porter’s “Faceted Wrap” 2022, consists of 1600 mirrored reflectors. 

Each of the polished stainless steel rectangles has 2 parallel folds with congruent sections bent forward.

This creates a fractured sense of space for the viewer. The lines of the rectangles both flat and folded outward divide the visual content into a multitude of linear fragments, offering a disjointed reality.
