Welcome to On Reflection Kaleidoscopes. I have been designing optical instruments since 1992. My designs and images have received various awards, and can be found in collections and museums around the world, and right here, right now.

My name is Marc Tickle. I started On Reflection Kaleidoscopes in England in 1992. I quickly became fascinated with the harmonious blend of art and science that epitomizes kaleidoscope design. I have mastered the art of directing light off reflective surfaces, and combining illusion with functionality and beauty. Most of my work has a built in duality, and a dynamic aspect. I have won numerous awards over the years, mostly in recognition for the complex images and innovative developments I've introduced. I continue to develop new concepts in kaleidoscopic design, and feel like the possibilities are endless when you have some mirror, light and an imagination.
