Description
This painting addresses the issue of how mirrors misrepresent the objects that they reflect. If one raises his left hand in front of a mirror, it reflects a right hand. A mirror does not reveal the truth of what it reflects. In this painting there are reflections in mirrors from all angles. Seek out the images in the mirrors and see whether the things that they reflect are plausibly located. The strategic and plausible juxtaposition of commonplace objects may collective configure amazingly unusual anthropomorphic imagery hitherto unseen when viewed individually. The angle at which one observes an object may alter the reality that one perceives in it. When I look at a flower like the bird of paradise, I may see a flower or I may see an image that mimics a human hand. A mirror reflection of objects juxtaposed in a certain way may also produce even more illusionistic images.
