A series that aims to portray people ‘as they see themselves’ in the mirror. When being photographed the sitter only sees their own reflection - looks into their own eyes, rather than the lens, at the moment of taking. The camera is hidden behind mirrors in a custom built, dark-box housing. Sitters are still aware of the photographer and camera’s presence, but are only faced with their reflections whilst the session is underway. The resulting images aim to reveal more intimate moments of addressing the self and insights into the laterally inverted perception of appearances.
