“Each thing (the glass surface of mirror, let us say) was infinite things, because I could clearly see it from every point in the cosmos. I saw the populous sea, saw dawn and dusk, saw the multitudes of the Americas, saw a silvery spider-web at the center of a black pyramid, saw a broken labyrinth (it was London), saw endless eyes, all very close, studying themselves in me, as though in a mirror, saw all the mirrors on the planet (and none of them reflecting me)…”
- from ‘The Aleph’, Jorge Luis Borges
Between the public outer realm and the private inner space, there exists a boundary. ‘Just a Reflection’ occupies the in-between, expanding this liminal threshold. Playing with existing window facades, a panoply of convex and concave mirrors, and an array of responsive lighting, the threshold becomes its own space of reflection, layering itself upon the outer and inner spaces beyond.
