Self-reflections is about these reflections of oneself appearing on photographs when artworks are protected by glass. I kind of got at first bored of this disturbance, never getting the appropriate or most truthful image of the art and then understood it the other way around and became aware that the glass which protects masterpieces generates my reflection. I became interested in these projections of my shadow on something else
The photographs that I wanted to take were meant to be authentic, as if the image could have been the object. I intend to highlight somehow that we can only take and bring back a reproduction (in the shape of a photograph). A transformation occurs through the form, as well as a change of dimensions.
Objects with smooth, flat surfaces have specific qualities which enable them to reflect their environment. The spectator is suddenly integrated into the piece. Does such an object has immersive intentions, somehow recalibrates it's own as well ? Does the reflected person becomes momentarily part of the piece of art ? Can we claim this status?
Self-reflections is plural because the alterations of reflections are due to the movements of those who pass by, to their positioning in space(s).
 

I condemned this reflection to endlessly appear eventhough there is no more artwork of which is taken a photograph of, but the reflection itself and me simultaneously.
