The mirror as a theme in the visual arts has existed for more than 3000 years, artists liked to represent people from behind facing a mirror so that the viewer can have a vision of the face of the person being painted. They wanted to give the illusion that their painting was real and try to achieve maximum fidelity to their subject.
The first mirrors were surely the stretches of calm water, which offered a slightly cloudy and erased shimmer of what was reflected there, then polished and shiny stones allowed man to see his own image.
For me, the mirror in my art must allow those who look at themselves to discover who they really are, that their image reveals the excellence of their beauty, that the reverberation awakens an emotion in themselves, the work n It's not the painting, but the radiance that the mirror makes of you.
