It's
impossible to anticipate, when you create something, where it will
end up, or who may want it. So, when Charlie from RDF films stepped
into my shop one day and asked me would I consider lending him a
couple of mirrors for his forthcoming documentary 'Dr Satan's Robot' for Channel 4
television, of course, I was flattered. When I later found out, one
of my favourite film directors, the extraordinary, Terry Gilliam,
would be in the frame, I was bowled over.
Above, the wonderful Terry Gilliam, framed by my 'Sunburst' mirror, on the Channel 4 Equinox documentary 'Dr Satan's Robot'. And, in the background, if you look over his shoulder, you'll see the outline of my 'Fantasia' mirror.
Above, the 'Fantasia' mirror which you can see peeping over Terry Gilliam's shoulder.

Vision and Eccentricity
Gilliam's
wonderful imagination and unique vision shines through all his great
films: 'Brazil', 'Time Bandits', '12 Monkey's', 'The Adventure
of Baron Munchasen', 'Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas', and 'The
Imaginarium of Doctor Parnassus' are just a few. So, perhaps, it was a fitting marriage: my eccentric mirror frames and one of Britain's all time eccentric visionary's.
