I want to hold up mirrors.
Dozens of them.
Mirrors of my mind.
Mirrors that reflect different realities.
Mirrors that reflect reality differently:
Acting. Advertising. Photography.
Writing: Fiction/Fact.
Mirrors before the camera.
And behind it.
Mirrors facing me/away.
Mirrors in one’s hand/head/heart.
Essential to every one of them is light:
The light of creativity.
Refracted through me.
