Duplicity, 2013

The Duplicity series is about how reflection—our own, and others’—reimagines its subject.In this series I explore the concept of what I call a “figurative kaleidoscope,” in which mirrors extend and alter our visual field. Figures are reflected from all sides: horizontally by the studio setup (mirrors manipulated alongside my submerged models), and from above where the body breaks through the water’s surface. But while the mirror multiplies beauty of the beholder, it also creates an “other.” It is in this play between romance and darkness that Duplicity reveals the veiled meaning suggested by its title: an enigmatic encounter with a fractured self-image. For me, this is the experience I embrace, one in which something beautiful becomes strange.
