‘Reflections of Her’ is an 8 minute film piece which focuses on the articulation of love through the camera lens. It’s not always easy to express how you see someone, or your love for someone through words but, the eyes never lie. Therefore, in this film, the camera lens are our eyes, they capture how we see each other. Every look in a mirror captured. Every touch on skin captured. It’s safe. It’s normal. It’s an inside into the relationship of a queer couple and how the emotions are never fake.

Frames are shot from different angles as I wanted the gaze to be authentic to where Louise or I are positioned in that specific moment, for example, standing in the door frame which Louise is in the bathroom.

The mirror reflections within my work are an important piece. They create a view that cannot always be seen. Reflections created the opposite site to what we are looking at and this can show the true focus on a person. Mirrors never lie and so, I invited the viewer to view the piece through the mirror as a reflection. Looking down at the floor creates a Birdseye view of the piece, almost like the viewer is observing us from above. It’s creates a third gaze of the piece, which will be different from Louise and I.
