Project 22 – 29 September 2007


Multiple Reflections

I felt it appropriate to kick off Project 22 with a photo of myself and my camera, but the motivation for this particular shot is one rooted in nostalgia. When I was a kid, my father built a medicine cabinet above the sink for the bathroom that my sister and I shared. It had three separate, evenly-sized mirror sections that opened to reveal shelves where things like our thermometer were kept. I used to love to crawl up on the sink counter, open two of the sections and bend them inward, leaving only a little gap to press my face into. This revealed a world of infinite (or so it seemed) mes, and the numerous reflections fascinated me. My current apartment is the first time since I was thirteen where I’ve had a similar medicine cabinet, and, well, I had to try.
