Urban Mirrors: A Typology of Reflections
I systematically documented the shiny glass curtains around Hong Kong, taking advantage of symmetry. Half of what you see in the viewfinder of the camera in the images presented here are slices of reality, of buildings, sky, and human activity that exists in space, and the other half is the image of themselves, an elsewhere illusion.
What is "space" and what is it that we see? Is it real or made by reflections and refractions? Is the "world" that we see merely a perception? Of the two sides of the mirror, which is more real? And, when we ourselves are reflected in it, maybe reality has always been a consciousness developed between the subject and the space, and that cannot be one or absolute.
