Considering surface, duration and the documentation of interior atmospheres, the series Mirror mirror is a long-term study of artist Rosslynd Piggott’s pivotal diptych ‘Mirror, mirror III’ (2008–09). Comprising a slumped, mirrored glass panel and a textured, palladium-gilt canvas, this archival work encapsulates Piggott’s enduring fascination with unclear mirrors.
My photographs depict the contorted reflections cast in ‘Mirror, mirror III’ (2008–09) within Piggott’s interior spaces and installations. Captured between 2013–24, the photographs function as both documents of Piggott’s interiors and as abstracted distillations of the liquified space reflected in the slumped and mirrored glass. My series distils a tension between the fixed and the ephemeral, the abstract and figurative, further contemplating duration and context as well as the aura and myth that surrounds art objects, interiors, and the artist.
