The work references Marcel Duchamp's "The Bride Stripped Bare by Her Bachelors, Even" (often known as "The Large Glass"), replacing the Bachelors with the four workers and the bride with the viewer. Duchamp's mechanistic imagery can be seen in the reflections of the city. Here, two workers carry out the first two-way mirror.
