Mirror Mirror...


Starting with photo manipulation, I experimented with the idea of fragmenting a photo I had taken of a magpie on a brick wall, to challenge what a person sees when the image they are looking at is different to what they expect to see. 






An interesting reflection I found at Warren Street Station



Here, I painted a large piece of MDF black, so as not to draw any attention away from the mirrors. The mirrors were arranged so that there was a higher concentration of larger mirrors in the centre, and smaller ones as you move further outwards. The variation of sizes made the reflected image distorted and fragmented, especially when you looked closer at the smallest mirrors.
