The Mirrorbox Journey
The Mirrorbox journey began in June 2025, travelling to message locations across Bristol and Somerset, and ending at the top of Glastonbury Tor. At each stop, people stepped inside to listen to the message —standing for a moment to acknowledge the person who had chosen that place.
Hundreds wrote postcards back to the message sender. A small act of human connection between absent and present people through the shared love of a place.
Over the next few years, it will travel to loved locations across the UK.
I love this idea, making us visible in the spaces where we are missing – and maybe these spaces are missing us too...

About the sculpture
The Mirrorbox is an interactive sculpture made of two-way mirrors. Reflecting the surroundings, those that step inside seem to disappear from view.
Inside, it’s quiet, you can see through the mirrors to the place you have just stood. A single voice of the message sender tells you about this place, a place that means so much to them
You are standing where they would be. Perhaps you love it too. Let them know by writing them a postcard in reply.
