Light Boxes

By Chris Jeffrey

This box measures 9 ½ “ wide, 17 ½ “ high and 18” deep. Inside, the back and two sides are mirror glass, and in the front the viewer looks in through a two-way mirror. The dish and the marbles inside it, which seem to recede into infinity by the reflections in the mirrors, are made from glass that incorporates a small amount of uranium. When this glass is lit up by the UV light at the top of the box it bursts into an intense green color.
