Mimma Russo
In her works, Mimma Russo uses a particular black color, the result of constant research and experimentation, which allows her to create mirrored wooden surfaces with varying tonal effects. Sometimes she also inserts glass crystals to capture any light source and thus amplify the play of light and reflections.
