only mountains

---

Imagine a poem in a wall of mirror tiles. As you read the poem, you can literally see yourself within the letters, within the words. Do you read the poem any differently than you would while looking at yourself in a regular mirror? What happens when the light changes and the poem reflects and refracts in a different, varied order? See for yourself by visiting Casa Libre en La Solana and viewing only mountains : a permanent mirror poem.

On March 1, 2008, artists, writers, and community members from Tucson and beyond came to Casa Libre for the unveiling event.
