Lot Essay

“A thought…about reflection is that you’re looking at what isn’t there-the tactile and the visual reality do not coincide-they overlap. Since all objects reflect-glass and chrome only more so-perhaps you show the way things look the less you show how they are or how we think they are.”
– Richard Estes
