As much as we have been thinking about our physical reflections this week, I think we've also been doing a bit of reflection within.

 

"Reflection: contemplation: a calm, lengthy, intent consideration"

In de Design Vlaanderen Galerie wordt de tentoonstelling "Reflections" herhaald die tijdens de vorige Milan Design Week in de Triënnale voor de eerste maal werd gepresenteerd. De tentoonstelling was een eerbetoon aan de Belgische ingenieurs Emile Foucault en Emile Gobbe die in 1903 het eerste mechanische systeem voor de productie van glas ontwikkelden, nl. het verticaal trekken van vlakglas. Dit zorgde wereldwijd voor een totale ommekeer in de glasnijverheid en het opende de weg naar de industriële productie van glas na de 1ste Wereldoorlog. Dat België aan de wieg ligt van de industrialisatie van vlakglas en er in België nog verschillende bedrijven zijn die samen met vele ontwerpers spiegels op de markt brengen was de aanleiding voor Reflections.

 

Maak kennis met niet enkel spiegels van Belgische designers maar ook andere voorwerpen met een spiegelend oppervlak, waarin het licht reflecteert en spiegelbeelden ontstaan. Eén voor één vormen ze hoogtepunten van design. Ontdek primeurs maar evengoed klassiekers van de hand van boeiende ontwerpers en bedrijven.

 

De ontwerpers: Leo Aerts (Alinea), Marina Bautier, Michaël Bihain, Susanna Campogrande & Lise Casalegno Marro (Allerretour), Xavier De Clippeleir, Alex De Witte, Simon Desmet & Timothy Macken (MaDe), Nathalie Dewez, Jean-François d’Or (Loudordesign studio), Luc Druez (LcD Textile Edition), Nedda El-Asmar & Erik Indekeu, Marie Gobert, Linde Hermans (Rode schoentjes), Bieke & Patrick Hoet, David Huycke, Bart Lens, Xavier Lust, Stefan Schöning, Diane Steverlynck, Ben Storms, Mathias Van De Walle (MVDW Workshop), Ann Van Hoey, Danny Venlet, Jules Wabbes, Sylvain Willenz.

 

De bedrijven: AGC Glass Europe, Dark, Deknudt Mirrors & Reflect+, Eternum, Fiam Italia, Ligne Roset, Linadura, Objekten, valerie_traan Gallery, Vervloet, Wever & Ducré, Zeri Crafts.

The distorted reflections are on the antique glass of an Edwardian corner cabinet inherited from my wife's maternal grandparents. It was created as a Wedding present in 1912 by the Groom's brother. As nice as it is, it is the contents that are the most interesting. Here are just a few: the world's smallest penknife, a snakeskin shed in its entirety, a false bluebottle fly, some rare Japanese phone cards, some old UK coins as well as lots of fine unused china. The most surprising thing of is that this item of furniture survived the London Blitz of WW2 without any damage whilst the home in was in was destroyed by bombs.

 

All of the above flashed through my mind over breakfast between mouthfuls of cereal and skimmed milk.

A boring indoors setting with magic lights! I saw this reflected light by chance and had to capture it.

Early morning reflection on "Lake Richardson". View from my sister's backporch. Some unexplained light leakage. Cropped from 4x5.

King Charles II granted the lands of St Leonard's Forest, of which Leonardslee was a part of, to his physician Sir Edward Greaves. It was kept as a woodland for hunting.

 

Eventually the Aldridge family took over. A portion of the estate was sold to Charles George Beauclerk in 1803. He introduced many of the palms, conifers, camellias, rhododendrons and magnolias.

 

c1852, wealthy merchant, William Hubbard, purchased Leonardslee. He added 57 acres to the estate making it 1,000 acres. As well as adding to the plants, he built the house, formally known as St Leonard's Lodge and now renamed Leonardslee.

 

Sir Robert Loder purchased High Beeches c1847 and his son Sir Edmund Loder acquired Leonardslee in 1889 from his father-in-law William Hubbard.

Sir Edmund Loder lived here for 30 years during which time he erected a rock garden from a concrete-like material called 'Pulhamite'. Loder created the loderi hybrids of rhododendrons. He also introduced a colony of wallabies still on the estate today.

 

Sir Edmund Loder died in 1920 and ownership passed to his wife. In 1945, Sir Edmund’s grandson Sir Giles Loder took over but eventually sold off over 900 acres.

 

In 1981, Giles’s son Robin becomes the garden custodian, managing it until 2010 when they were sold and closed to the public.

 

In 2017 the gardens were acquired by Penny Streeter and the Benguela Collection Hospitality Group.

 

There are 7 lakes, all manmade. In the C16th they provided water for the local iron industry. In 1947 “Black Narcissus” was part filmed at Leonardslee.
