Josiah McElheny has transformed what was previously the reading room of the former Whitechapel Library into a hall of mirrors. Seven large-scale mirrors are arranged as multiple reflective screens for displaying abstract films which are programmed to change throughout the year. The sculptures reflect and refract the projected film selection, saturating the whole gallery in images and light. Refracted, distorted and multiplied, the images are visually very striking.
