BEYOND THE MIRROR


A Note From Our Juror:

"Photography has long been a tool for reflection— both literal and metaphorical. Beyond the Mirror invited artists to look past the surface, beyond mere appearances, and into the deeper truths that lie beneath. The submissions to this exhibition were striking in their range. The images submitted encompassed a myriad of subject matter that revealed explorations in identity, nature, landscape the figure, and reflections on memory that embrace multiple dimensions of the human experience. Many of these photographic works challenged the way we engage with reality, using distortion, shadow, double exposure, mirroring and abstraction to unsettle our notions of reality. Others embraced intimacy and vulnerability, turning the lens inward to capture personal narratives and emotive landscapes. Some photographs blurred the boundaries between reality and illusion, while others reminded us that the most profound reflections often come from documenting our interactions with the world around us. Each selected piece contributes to a broader conversation about self-awareness and ultimate transformation. These photographs invite us to pause, to look deeper, and to reconsider what we think we know—not just about the subjects within the frame, but about ourselves. It has been an inspiring experience to jury this exhibition, and I hope these images resonate with you as much as they have with me." — Steven Phillip Harris
