Reflections in contemporary art – mirrors exploring reality and illusion

Reflections of a hand in a three-sided mirror box

Three mirrors forming the vertical sides of a triangular box turn a hand into an alien creature.
An exploration of how a familiar object (here a hand) can be transformed into something completely alien purely by the use of simple mirrors.
A study of the familiar becoming unfamiliar via a mundane agency.
