Conceptually, reflection can be viewed literally or figuratively. In our literal, physical world, we think of mirrors, pools of still water, glass. However, reflection also speaks of contemplation, musings, deliberation: a process essential to human existence. The alignment between physical and metaphysical reflection is explored in this series of work.
Louis L'amour reminds us that 'Today is all we have; tomorrow is a mirage that may never become reality.'
Just as the mirrored reflection is a poor shadow of reality, our musings are but a perception of the truth. This floating mirage of memories can overpower us if we do not accept that are internal reflections of the past are coloured by our own perceptions. |
