Reflection in a Pond

Turning inwards when the familiar outside is disconnected. We, as artists, are finding connections in the current times of crisis – focusing on ourselves and our practice, within the boundaries of an uncertain outside. 

Resembling Narcissus finding his reflection in a steady pond, we too, now see a clear image of self. Through capturing this self, asking questions about our own perceptions, our own clarity of mind, we take a closer look to converse with ourselves. All in an effort to disclose a new stage of clarity and resolvedness. 

As ultimately everything becomes the subject of self-reflection, the self– as a catalyst for exploration, development and creation – now becomes a steady agent and driver in our worlds. A world that is ever changing, developing and growing. Our work exists within a context of multiple, overlapping, and intersecting narratives, where there is an undeniable sense of urgency in our creation, our consumption, our conversation. 

On these still waters, we find our reflection. But disturbing the surface now allows us to refract the perspective and find new directions.
