The Through the Looking-Glass series is an installation composed of nine individual works, awarded and exhibited at the Mulafest 2016 Urban Art Festival.

The work is created on the original mirrors of the old Plaza España Building, an architectural landmark created in the 1950s by engineers Jose María and Julian Otamendi, creating the first large vertical concrete structure, with a Baroque portal on its main façade.

It was the first skyscraper in Madrid, now converted into the RIU Plaza Hotel.

Casassola rescued the mirrors from the building's previous ruin, which fell into ostracism and uncertainty after being closed and sold to various owners until its current conversion into a five-star hotel.

The works were photographed in the Huerto del Cura park in Fuenlabrada and at Mulafest itself, so the reflection of the surroundings is visible, without this being part of the work, but rather the reflection of the surroundings in the mirror.

Through the Looking-Glass is a journey through the mirror of realities, the personal ones that philosophy tells us about, or the extra dimensions that we don't perceive and on which string theory is based.

Like Alice, we go through the looking glass and don't discuss what we find there, we live it and that's enough.
