The artwork, titled “Sponges with Single Double-Sided Floor Mirror,” was created by Jeff Koons in 1978 in the United States. This ready-made piece is associated with the Conceptual Art and Post-Minimalism movements and falls within the genres of sculpture and abstract art.
This work features a collection of brightly colored sponges scattered around a double-sided mirror. The sponges, including shades of pink, green, and yellow, are arranged in a seemingly casual manner, with some lying flat while others lean against the mirror. The mirror itself stands upright, reflecting the sponges and creating an illusion of greater complexity and depth within the piece. The simplicity and everyday nature of the materials used align with the themes of both Conceptual Art and Post-Minimalism, inviting the viewer to contemplate the ordinary objects within an art context.
