Reflection
Curator: Vera Pilpul, Sari Paran
Gallery: Periscope
This work explores a dual perception of reality through the use of two synchronized screens, together forming a charged visual space. One screen presents familiar and seemingly mundane moments from a casual walk. The second reflects the very same footage, yet altered through a digital filter that distorts and reshapes the imagery.
This duplication and manipulation produce a resonant echo an image that is no longer a simple mirror, but a disrupted interpretation, somewhere between memory and dream. The phenomenon evokes a reflection in restless waters nothing remains stable, and every familiar detail slips into something elusive and transformed.
The video raises questions about how we perceive and remember reality in the digital age. Is the original image truly "real," or has every representation, even those that document reality already been processed, destabilized, and partially lost? The layered composition creates a dialogue between the visible and the fragmented, between the recognizable and the distorted, inviting viewers to confront a central question: how much can we trust what we see?
