REFLECTION
Reflection is both a contemplative act as well as a physical mirroring of a subjects surface. Mental reflection is a defining element of the human experience. Likewise, the ability to recognize one’s reflection in a mirror is also a human trait, though this phenomenon of visual self-awareness is also shared by a handful of other highly intelligent creatures. The interrelatedness of intelligence with the ability to physically recognize one’s reflected self serves as a catalyst for this series and also begs the question of how other forms of life perceive themselves.
