From Shadows to Reflection

Another interesting use of light in art is reflections. Like shadows, it can be very effective in conveying movement. From my trip to the Dublin Contemporary exhibition in early October, I came across an artist, who used reflection in beautiful and captivating ways. Aswell as this, some of his pieces have a similar theme to my work- destruction.
