The artwork titled “Magic” was created by John McCracken in 2008. It belongs to the Light and Space art movement and is an installation genre piece.
The artwork features a tall, slender monolith, exhibiting a highly polished, reflective surface. Situated amidst a natural environment, its mirrored exterior captures and distorts the surrounding scenery, blending the line between art and nature. This seamless reflection creates a surreal interplay with its environment, prompting viewers to reflect on perception and presence within space. Such characteristics are hallmark traits of the Light and Space movement, emphasizing the experiential nature of the piece.
